Powdered graphit can be bought at any good drug store, auto parts store or Home Depot / Leow's. It comes in a toothpaste tube and is generally sold for lubricating locks for external house doors and car doors. Careful, it is the messiest substance on the planet!

Turtle, I have to credit you for ingenuity! Bravo!
