Sticky Sunroofs

^ thats the way to go…
oil based grease will rot the rubber seal, where as the silicon stuff wont.

Thank you for your help.

You can buy silicone grease from anywhere that sells paintball guns, a product I use for my paintball gun is called Sleek, made by Smart Parts, very good grease. A little pricey but very good, will try it on my own sunroof and post back. I tried red rubber grease on the seal, but its far too sticky, so dont waste your time using it. Isnt silicone meant to be bad on paintwork though?

Maplins do 50g for about 4 quid and 70g aerosols for about a fiver.

Maploins stuff is the stuff I use, also look on there for electrical contact cleaner, its a spray that just dissolves old grease and perfect for cleaning it out with.
The Silicone is fine on paint

they always seem to make a point of specifying that xxx brand car polish doesnt have silicone in it, thats why i thought that it was bad for it.

Silicon is a paint sprayers nightmare!! that is all
-
ahhhh, thats good to know, i like using silicone spray on locks but was afraid to use it incase it took the paint off!

Its very hard to remove, you will need a solvent to clean it off properly

think mine has some paint illness then cos it seems to come off on its own lol
