The lower bed squeaks in the night. Also, when in the process of pushing the bed back the 3 or 4 inches. It’s due to the two ringed areas rubbing on each other.

My instinct is to reach for a can of silicone/ptfe spray, but I wondered what you thought?
(My only other thought was that sticking some sort of anti-squeak material to the area might end in a mess given the nature of the motion used when making the bed.)

Light spray of silicone spray to both surfaces.
 
Updating with progress:
As soon as confirmation of my own thoughts came through I sprayed with silicone. Two light sprays has improved, but not eliminated the annoying squeak. Im pondering whether to go for gold, remove the silicone and try the autoglym vinyl and rubber care (that I already have in the garage).
