I've noticed that when changing lightbulbs that the socket seems quite
"rough" and the bulbs don't screw in smoothly. I always wonder if the
contact is as good as it could be.

Is there something I can apply to the threads of the bulb to "lubricate"
them?

In the situation you describe, I've used Permatex anti-seize compound with
good results.
