You're talking metal trays... you old geezer!

Plastic ice cube trays can be made non-stick... coat with a light film
of vegetable oil, let sit over night, then wash as you normally do
dishes (dishwashing machine is ideal), your trays will now be non-stick
for years... years later when you notice cubes beginning to stick
repeat the process. Odds are you'll buy a new fridge with new trays
before those treated trays will need re-treatment.
