I know I can ask at Auto One etc but I though the recommendations from EO members would be very helpful with my decision on what to buy.
I want to lubricate the door seals on the vehicle so they dont dry out.
Many thanks for any responses.

You can't beat a
well lubricated seal.

Nav1,
I wouldn't worry about it. Modern door seals don't need any maintenance. Perhaps a light wipe with Armourall every few months, but personally, I wouldn't worry about it.

Armorall is recommended for hatch seals too.

I have been using silicone spray for years once or twice a year depending on where I have been, it seems to keep everything pliable. works
well with seals and bushes, and zips when they get a liitle stiff to operate.

As long as you do not mind the seals squeaking.

I would have thought WD40 would have been a great recommendation..
