Rob,
Question: What's the bottle of Superslick look like?

Rob,

1. Do you have a lightweight slide? (i.e. nickel-silver outer slide)  
these
tend to be a little noisier than brass outers.

2. I use Superslick cream with Superslick Plus oil on all my slides  
(except
my 1949 vintage one owner King 2B which has never seen anything but  
Ponds)
and have been very satisfied. I use Hetman's Hydroslide diluted 40:1  
for a
spray once a day and then a water spray if needed.

3. This works for me on both brass and lightweight slides. I'm sure you  
will
get plenty of other suggestions on this subject.
