WD40 stands for Water Displacement and the 40 stands for the number of attempts to make it right. I spray a little on my hands or rag and with the roof up i reach in between the roof and the roof liner and rub the ram/lift shaft with the lubricant then operate the roof a few times.
However, if you elect to use a silicone that would be ok. I do not force any products on anyone but I do like the cleaning and lubricating properties of WD40.

I use WD 40 dry silicone. The key is to apply with q-tips in areas were the headliner or interior is nearby. Another method if you do not have time to do that is to spray a cloth and rub the surfaces with a cloth. In addition, get a good rubber treatment for the rails. I use 303 but there is a German product with a hard to pronounce name that is well accepted.
