Default What do you use?
What can you use on your weatherstripping to help keep it supple/prevent premature aging?

I have used dielectric grease, but just started using Leslie's Pool & Spa lube (a cheap alternative to Krytox).

I use that too, its good stuff. It looks good, not too greasy like Armoral. But I don't know if it prevents premature aging.
