Back in the 90's I had an office chair that made the most awful screeching noise (Freddy Kruger at a chalkboard bad). We tried everything to lubricate that chair. WD-40, dry silicon, heavy moly grease... Nothing worked, until in desperation, we tried the last thing we could come up with.
Kraft American cheese. It worked like a charm, and silenced the screech for more than a year.

I've heard that WD-40 is not a lubricant and so was probably the cause of failure for all subsequent attempts.

This. It's really a cleaner even though we've all used it like a lube.
