Lubricating noisy throwout bearing?

I have a noisy throwout bearing on my 1990 CD with 140k. The clutch, throwout bearing and slave were replaced about 20k ago. My throwout bearing lightly rubs against my pressure plate and produces a a high pitched noise. I have tried everything to get rid of the noise except lubricating it. I have bled the clutch several times with my motive pressure bleeder. I tried carefully pushing the bearing away from the pressure plate to make sure its seated but it only returns to its original position after depressing the clutch. Could a master cylinder cause this condition? Clutch operation is smooth and pedal height is good. My next step was to try and spray maybe some dry teflon spray I use on my firearms onto the face of the bearing? Any suggestions on a suitable lubricant or what could be causing the problem?
