I've just bought 12 x 400 ml cans of the stuff from ebay that worked out at £3 each with delivery; so that's pretty good.

Are you sure the screwfix stuff is correct ?

you need PTFE dry lube spray - not PTFE lubricant - these are oily based and may cause dirt and grit to build
up on the pole sections.

I've just had a look at that toolstation ptfe.  Yeh, it's £2.87 for a 400 ml can, and then they charge £5.00 for postage and packaging; final price £7.87!

I guess if you need other stuff, then this would be good.
