Ridecamp: [RC] Girth rub question

Hi all!

I'm sure this question has been cussed and discussed
in the past.  But, just in case...

I've had a problem lately with ANY girth rubbing
Charlie Brown (the horse, ya know).  Neoprene, string,
wool cover...!  When I put zinc oxide on his side, it
helps for awhile.  Unfortunately, once it rubs off, I
don't know that's it's helping.

Can anyone help in PREVENTING the rubs in the first
place?  I've gotten some ointment from Tammy of Trail
Rite that helps in healing (I need more, BTW).  I can
use the same girths on different horses, go the same
distance, no rubs.  I clean all the girths to get the
sweat out too. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
