Near side window hard to slide open from new . Tried silicone spray lubricant which seemed to make sliding harder ( maybe swelled seal ? ) noticed someone had mentioned trying graphite. Used a product that I had to hand which is used for lubricating door locks. Worked a treat, very effective.

I attempted to take perspex out of sidescreens the other day but gave up before I did damage. In the process I used a small powerful car vac to clean out channels aided by a thin plastic scraper, cloth and solvent. A surprising amount of muck came out and the previously stiff passenger slide now runs a little smoother. Remember anything that lubricates will attract muck as well.

You used to be able to get a spray on 'dry lube' I think it contained PTFE

There is a WD40 variant dry lube with PTFE available here.
