Seeing the prices of new replacement rubbers being quite expensive, having inspected mine, they are all fine, and water tight, however, I wish to treat them to make them last longer then just leaving bare. Is there any product to treat these rubber seals? Silicon products etc?

Thanks in advance!

I have a silicone stick that you wipe them with to stop them freezing to the door.
I have heard that a smear of vaseline helps (and not just on your seals).

Thanks, that would be handy seeing at temperatures get as low as -35 here. Will look into some products via google, but still interested what members use/have tried etc.

Found it - Sonax Rubber Care crayon - http://www.sonax.com/Car-Care/Products/ ... are-crayon

Excellent, thank so much, I will get myself some of that!

I use silicone stick or spray, really need it here i Western Norway because it could be 5 C and sleet in the night and -15 C in the morning.

Sliding door is a bugger in those conditions, broke two handles last year...

Silicone spray is great used to use it on all military wagons when in cold climates!

Cheers guys will go for Sonex Rubber Care
