After having difficulty with leak in my water softener cap I was alerted to Dow 111 O-ring and Valve Lubricant. Silicone based, it is very slick. It works great on the filter o-ring that will pull into place if placed carefully as described by Robert.

Also available in 5.3 oz tube but that would be a lifetime supply. When I can get at it I am going to try this on my gray water valve too. Mine is really stiff to operate.

I use a surplus airline food service tray to catch whatever spills under the filter which is minimal. I bought several at 25 cents each. Very handy.
