Rubber Lubricant?

RE: post 6, by Jeff- Was using "Ru-Glyde" on shock and rear spring bushings (stopped squeaks) and door seal rubber (eliminated doors freezing shut in miserable Chicago winters) during the 1950's - best rubber lube at that time - Amazing it is still available, THANKS!

I use Griot’s Garage Vinyl and Rubber Dressing. They also have a rubber prep and cleaner.

I bought a gallon of that stuff at Napa 3-4 years ago, when I was first learning how to mount a run-flat car tire on my Goldwing. The smell and texture (between fingertips) was identical to antifreeze. It was also useless as a tire lube. If I was gonna give it a try on rubber, would just use antifreeze.

That's weird, I use the stuff when mounting the tires on the Ulysses and it worked well for me. Just make sure to dilute it to the ratio.

303 Aerospace is fantastic for this.
