Screen door sticking cure

My screen door has been sticking on the light switch in the door jam that turns on the inside lights when the door is opened. I even had to replace the door jam switch about a month ago. When the screen door is closed it hangs up when pushing in the light switch plunger making it hard to close the screen door. THE CURE --- Went to the local hardware supply store and bought a small tube of WHITE LITHIUM GREASE. The tube is smaller than a tooth paste tube and cost about $2.00. On the screen door where it hits the switch you will see a small black spot where the switch has rubbed of the white paint. Put a very small dab of the grease on the black spot on the sdreen door and with your finger rub a little grease on the end of the light switch plunger. The last four days in the RV and the screen does not stick any more at all. I put the grease tube in a zip lock bag and placed it in a tool drawer.
