fermenter lid stuck

Does anyone have a problem unscrewing the lid off the fermenter after a brew is finished? I'm using a Coopers brew kit fermenter and the problem is getting worse each time. I'm afraid that one day it's gonna be stuck forever.

Perhaps I have a new use for the vaseline by the beside table?
