lubed
Made slippery with substance
Lubed is the past tense and past participle of lube, meaning coated with lubricant.
Something lubed up slides more easily—machinery, bike chains, or body parts during sex.
Make sure the gears are properly lubed.
We got all lubed up before the race can mean either applying anti-chafing products or, colloquially, drinking alcohol.
