Try the PTFE teflon spray, i find the get filled with dust and require a proper clean before using the spray.

Depending on the type there’s a big nut with a fibre washer that gets a bit gritty !
Take apart clean and lubricate

Does it slide to and fro ok or is that a bit stiff as well?
Is the passenger seat action any different to before we took it off?

Asking as I know on the VW Transporters, when you replace those seats, if you don't tighten up the bolts nice and evenly going round like you would with a wheel, they can be very stiff to move.
I don't think that should be a factor with a swivel plate, but you could try loosening all the bolts from the plate to the base just slightly and see if the action is better? if so, tighten up gradually and evenly (TBH I doubt it will make a difference, but worth a shot just to eliminate).

Slide action fine just very stiff to rotate ,empty or loaded have tried spray but no change

Maybe a graphite type dry lubricant might be better.

They require a strip and proper clean before spray.
