I remember reading on one of the cruising forums to use Baby Oil. Tried that, and now my Skipper really feels like the rubber in the pump is galling. (plus, yes, it probably puts a coating in the holding tank) I went back to the Thetford lubricant, and it works good after that, but It doesn't last long.
Think I am going to have to rebuild the seals, maybe I will stick to the thetford stuff after that. I get it at the RV store, cheaper.

Perhaps one of the dedicated head lubes would be the ticket.
