Is there any product on the market that can be applied to the window rubber surrounds.

Mine seem to be a bit dry. Need to soften /freshen them up.

cheers

Aerospace 303 protectant. There is also another liquid that a friend who is a detailer used last time he did my car but I can't remember the name. I will let you know once I find out.

EDIT> This one: Einszett gummiphledge. BMW dealers sell it.

Subarus have the biggest seals I have seen on a car!

I know there is a thread on this somewhere. What I do is get an aerosol can of silicone lubricant, spray some on a cotton towel and wipe that on all the weather stripping. Cleans them up and prevents them from getting frozen shut in the winter.

Is this to stop the wind noise??

I used KY Jelly personal lubricant and it worked a treat. However anyone I told about it looked at me in horror. :icon_redface:

Huh, as long as you didn't use the "KY Yours+Mine", I think your FOZ will be fine. Otherwise she will be nagging you for more...

Well you haven't said what you used it for.......

I wouldn't use anything leaving a greasy residue to get on the glass and then get smeared down into the seals myself!

Petroleum products tend to eat weather stripping (EPDM) so it's not a good idea if I remember right, I found this thread interesting:
