Another option is LPS2.  In my friction reduction effort, which included
lighter return springs, I squirted LPS2 down the guide tubes.  The
cables were already in place, so I placed the red applicator tube up
against cable at the guide tube exit and wrapped lots of packing tape
around as a pseudo seal.  I held a towel around everything, just in
case, and squirted away.  It worked well and I haven't had any friction
issues in 7 years of use.
