    Petroleum jelly. Smear a bit on with your finger, then wipe off with a rag. Don’t scrub it off, just take off any excess. Works on all kinds of glue bottles too.

        Just to be clear, it helps stop the poly (or glue) from adhering to the threads, but any poly on the threads will still act as a mechanical wedge once it dries. So, I’m afraid it isn’t a magic cure-all.

        Also, just to note, the longer the poly sits, the harder it will get, making the mechanical wedge effect worse over time.
