    its been a few weeks since I’ve opened my windoors. When I went to open them they were very hard to get open. Like they were stuck to the seal. I actually opened the back and slightly but firm pressure pushed out. They did open up. Has anyone put a lithium white grease and the matting surface to prevent this? Or anyone recommend anything else? Thanks I live in South Carolina so they weren’t frozen!

    I recommend 303 Aerospace protectorant. They also make a weather stripping conditioner but 303 alone should be enough, past part is it permeates the rubber (and plastic) and last quite a while. It's water based and dries to the touch quickly while still protecting your rubbers and plastics leaving them dark in color without having a greasy film on them like most products.
    $24 303 Products Aerospace Protectant Spray, UV Protection, Repels Dust, Dirt, & Staining, Matte Finish, Restores Like-New Appearance, Outdoor Cleaning Supplies 32 Fl. Oz.

    If you need to grease the pivots or lubricate the locks and pins I'm a big fan of superlube with teflon and boelube boeshield T9

    Thanks. I’ll order the 303 & superlube. Could never find 303 locally so Amazon will work

    Not to be confused with a Winder, that just a window south of the Mason Dixon. :thumbsup:

    Everytime I see windoors up I think they look like tiny translucent insect wings, like if you could flap they hard enough your truck would fly away...

    Science says the wings are too small for the bee to fly but the bee says fuck you science. Wanna see a Tacoma try that.

    Sorry ADHD :D
