 Yes, you can use dielectric grease. Any kind of grease will reduce the friction between the bulb base and the socket.

 #yiv1308029979 P {margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;}Mostly in ceiling fans.....I have a hard time removing screw in bulbs. They are very hard to turn and at least once I've had the bulb twist out of its mount leaving the male end in the fixture. 
Can I use di-electric grease on light bulbs? If not, is there something else that I can use to make it easier to remove bulbs?
