An up date on my request for information..... Thanks !
I tried band saw blade lubricant (tallow ?) , grease, Ivory soap,
and straight paraffin wax used for treating hands and sometimes making expensive scented candles - and the winner is - PARAFFIN WAX !!!!!
The paraffin actually reduced the noise considerably, there was visibly less scratches and galling , and overall it was cleaner to use.
My only concern is that it does take more effort / pressure on the disc in order to create enough heat to cause the shrinking to take place.
