Can anyone recommend a good vinyl rubber preserver? Apparently, the stuff that I used to use is no longer available.

Thanks for your suggestion. This isn't the greasy kid stuff like Armor All ?

For weatherstripping? DuPont's Krytox is one of THE best. GM even used to sell it under their brand. Of course at higher prices. They used GPL105 version. Kind of a liquid, but they make GPL205 that's a little more viscous and needs a bit more work to spread, but either works fine. $$$$$ Be prepared to dig deep. Very pricey but NO SILICONE. Tiny bit goes a long way, though. Thank goodness because it's pretty pricey. This stuff BONDS with the weatherstripping and it even holds up to radiation.


303 rubber seal protectant is great too. Much cheaper than Krytox.

Thank you for your recommendations. I very much appreciate it. Krytox is some pretty pricy stuff. I'm sure it must great.

Thank you, Mich,
Looks like 303 is going to get my vote. Thank you guys.
So I could use it for vinyl upholstery, dash top, and weather stripping? I guess it's a product that has to be purchased online?
Is it primarily used for rubber seals, etc.? and I'd have to use something else for vinyl door panels, etc.?
Would this be suitable for both types of surfaces? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0185PU38A/?tag=gbody-20
