Am refurbishing both slide glides, and wanted to grease them. But without the nasty grease smell staying inside the car? Ideas?
Thanks
 
You could try "Mopar passive restraint track grease"
 
I use white lithium grease like ironbuilt said. It will have "some" odor until the solvent in it evaporates, but the plus side is that it won't stain your interior. If you can find it in a tube instead of spray can, there will not be any solvent odor (may still have a very slight odor though).

I'm not sure about syl-glide.

Graphite (powder) is a great lubricant & has no odor at all, BUT it is black/silver and is EXTREMELY messy & stains cannot be cleaned off. Personally, I only use graphite inside my locks & on my speedometer cable.
 
I prefer 3M silicone paste.
 
Lithium. I use a small can/tube and brush to apply. I hate spraying crap all over the place. I also try to never get silicone near my cars. I used to paint, and know it gets everywhere.

The thing about graphite is you need very little. In fact, you could use a pencil and achieve favorable results.
If you're using enough to stain you're using too much.
 
Molykote would work as well
