Silicone spray or 3M Marine Vinyl Cleaner and Restorer Posted by REM in Seattle [Email] (#4) [Profile/Gallery] (more from REM in Seattle) on Thu, 18 Dec 2003 15:58:55 In Reply to: Best product for conditioning weatherstripping?, AllanJ, Thu, 18 Dec 2003 15:00:41 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
A couple good brands are CRC (Also sold as NAPA Auto Parts brand) Heavy Duty Silicone Spray and Crown Slix-it (both are 65-75% Heptane + 20-40% Butane propellant + 6-10% Dimethyl polysiloxane). Some of the other brands, like GUNK Silicone Spray, are only 3-6% silicone.
Another good product is 3M Marine Vinyl Cleaner and Restorer,available at Walmart in the Boating section. It is also very good on the exterior vinyl trim. "Cleans, shines, conditions and protects in one easy step. Deep cleans dirt and grime from vinyl, rubber and plastic surfaces while leaving behind a natural carnauba was protective coating. Has a "fresh" lemon scent."
Apply the spray to a clean rag and then wipe the weatherstripping.
