Obviously I have thought of like a WD-40 solution on a Q-tip, but am wondering if other home remedies (soap, wax) may work better and be less messy. Is there a purchased solution available for the task?

Anything wet or greasy will attract more things to make them stick. That's cheaper then graphite powder used as lubricant for locks/keys. Of course, pencil lead is graphite. If steroids are illegal for athletes, should PS be illegal for models?
