Process of melt extruding through an extrusion die whose surface is coated with one or more metal oxides, M.sub.x O.sub.y, wherein M is a metal selected from the group consisting of Ti, Zr, Cr, Fe, Ni, Pd, Pt, Cu, Ag, Au, Al and Si, and x and y are selected to satisfy the valencies of M, a difficultly-melt-processible polymer containing 0.002-2 parts by weight, based on the weight of the polymer, of at least one melt-processible fluorocarbon polymer processing aid having a fluorine to carbon ratio of at least 1:2 and having metal oxide-reactive sites capable of reacting with or physically associating with the metal oxide of the die surface.
