give it a squirt of silicon polish and wipe it don't use oil as this will make it stick more i have a rod that is hard to pull apart so i whippet some thick cotton ether side of the joint so you get a better grip to pull it a part

i wouldnt use oil of any description on the unprotected area of the carbon fiber such as the joint as it causes all manner of problems, when you assemble your rod try not to push the two sections together too hard
