Default Extra slippery lubricant ???

Little Franky punched a bunch of 3/16” holes in 24 stair tread adapters he made for me today. He was having some troubles extracting the punch from the 1/8” metal, using the weight & play in the punch handle to sort of bump / hammer the punch out of the metal. We have been putting cutting oil on our punches but it’s a choice only because it’s handy being it’s always on the nearby drill press. I’m just wondering if there’s some tricked out super slippery lubricant we could be using to ease up the extractions of the punch ? Thank you. ~ John Buchtenkirch
