Strings are SO dry, please recommend lubricant

[Gmork]

i just put a set of dr dtt strings on my guitar a couple days ago. kind of
hard to explain perfectly but they feel SSOOO .......dry, causing mass
finger friction. they are cutting my fingers up. never had this happen in
20+ years of playing. is there some sort of string lubricant i can get/make
to remedy this? think ill stick to my normal strings for now on. thanks

Finger Ease... great name, better product.

Ernie Ball and Dunlop make string cleaner/lube, but it's not really worth it in the long run. Just change strings.

Fast fret might work for you.

Fast fret is a solution.
You might want to try it.
I only use it on guitars I don't plan to use for a month to preserve strings as I really hate the sticky greasy feel under my fingers

May sound silly, but I put a paper towel under the strings,
the spray some DeOxit Gold, (has a mild lubricant in it), and rub
up and down, bridge to nut and works great and removes corrosion.

Sounds like bad strings but your fretboard may need an oil aswell.

On really dry fretboards I've noticed the strings feel stiff and slow.
