Default pontoon trailer bunks

I have a hard time unloading my pontoon boat even though I back the tow vehicle until the rear tires are in the water. Is there any spray or coating that I can put on the carpet bunks to help the boat slide easier? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have nylon blocks on mine, noticed an instant difference, launches and loads alot easier.
Didn't see them in iboats store but can be had at Bass pro or Cabelas

I have rollers on my new pontoon... And my old pontoon which had carpet on the bunks I would just douse with water before launch.
