Listers –

I’m hoping someone out there can help me.  The lubricating oil used to ease the movement of the cabinet drawers in my textile vault has begun to leak down into the drawers below (it is happening in all of our cabinets of this type to some degree).  Thankfully, no textiles have been damaged so far, but other than keeping the textiles and tissue well away from the drawer edges is there anything I can do?  If it’s just time to replace the drawers, any recommendations for replacement?  Any drawer units out there that don’t use oil?

Thanks for the help.
