I've seen it sold in foil packages similar to salad dressing packaging.

That I know I can buy locally rather than having to order it. nate -- replace "roosters" with "cox" to reply. http://members.cox.net/njnagel
From: J O E on 27 Jun 2010 08:15 I used to cover a jar with a paper towel held in place with a rubber band - then poke a hole in the towel with the spout tube from a can of silicone spray, then spray the silicone mist into the jar until I captured a few tablespoons of the liquid. Then, using a 1-inch bristle brush, I'd paint all the door gaskets with the juice. More recently, I've found that Tire Wet - the stuff that shines up your tires - works better, and lasts longer. I get the refill bottle and just paint it on when needed. Joe

I used to use some Meguiar's - I think - stuff that made your tires black but not glossy. Really liked it. Any store I've been in in the past 2 years or more has not sold anything but "EXTREEM SHINE!!!11!!eleventy!" products however. As an aside to your comment, my 944 has one of those semi-squishy black rubber spoilers on it, and I've found that spray silicone works better than tire dressing - even when I could find the non-glossy stuff - for keeping it "really black" and not having too much dirt stick to it. When I remember to apply it. However, for the door gasket thing, I may have to break down and buy some tire dressing just for that purpose, because it seems easier to apply than any of the silicone products on my shelf... nate -- replace "roosters" with "cox" to reply. http://members.cox.net/njnagel |
