Make my machine insert more slippery
Well, I have my new sewing cabinet and yesterday the acrylic insert arrived. It is great! However the insert is sort of 'grabby' and the fabric doesn't slide well. I looked on the sew steady site for suggestions; they sell a small container of paste/wax for $10 plus shipping. Sort of pricey I think and besides I want it now - not next week. I know, I shouldn't be so impatient. However, I am betting someone on the board will know something I can use to make the insert slippery. Thanks!

I think I will try the car wax. Thanks for the suggestion. I will get some and try it. I do have a question about rain.. X. If I use it on my shower glass, do I need to worry about getting it on the floor? Will it make the floor slippery?

Just one quick ? Is there by any chance a plastic film on it to protect the acrylic? Mine a a film on it that just peels off. Sometimes it is hard to tell if it is there. Check for this and if not, I would go with the car wax. I have found that silicone just contaminates everything.
