I used the product as routine maintenance to all seals etc. Thought the door seals would be good to go for winter, but not so. I’m having to apply it constantly in upstate NY winter weather. Any ideas of what might be going on? Thanks!

[@InJasonsGarage]

How often is constantly? If the seals were pretty dry when you first applied it, it might need a few applications to "soak" in. Also, if the weather has been particularly nasty, you might need to apply more than when the weather is milder.

Spray something with silicone. Get in the engine compartment and under the vehicle and spray all the rubbers bushings. The shocks struts axle boots anything where you see rubber. Rubber dries out over time and this will help keep them from not drying out.

I couldn't get into my car today. (Missed 1/2 an apps.) Also if I needed to get away from-a bad situation, lets say, I would be stuck! So if my car had a key I would be able to spray the lock, but guess what? These new fangled cars have no keys. And I couldn't even press the button that electronically is supposed to open the door. Not even sure it was the sales that were frozen but maybe the door lock itself. My gas door was also slightly stuck. I did get it open to find a lot of water inside around the gas input. How that gets in is behind me. this is a new car and I am very upset that it freezes so easiy. At least I have a remote start but after starting it twice I still couldn't get the car to unlock. I sprayed a little deicer which is all I could find around the door lock area but don't know if it helped or not. Finally I was able to unlock the door and get it to open. What about Olive oil spray. I saw in another video that it could be used instead of silicone. Thanks for the tip on WD40.

[@JamesBrown-rm2rd]

i,ve been using silicone spray for years,not wd40, but just silicone spray on a rage and wipe your door seals all around, then spray it in the locks and door mechanisms and have had perfect results with no stuck doors no torn rubber seals or anything, anything with water in it will freeze up.

[@petercarey6883]

I'm wondering how this would work on the C6 Targa tops that "creak?" I've solved my creaking by of course adjusting each one of the three clamps to lock the top in place, but also used dialectic grease on all the weather stripping. It works, but does leave a residue that can be seen when the top is off. Not exactly good for car shows. lol What do you think? Save the Wave.🙋‍♂️

[@InJasonsGarage]

There is no residue left over after you let it soak in a bit and then wipe any excess off and then let it fully dry. It might be hard to see in the video, but it makes the seals look new again. I'd say give it a try and let me know if it solves your problem. I'll bet a lot of C6 owners who have creaky targa tops will be happy if it does!

[@petercarey6883]

Thank you Jason. You were reading my mind in my wondering if this product would improve the looks in that I couldn't tell from the video. Yes, I can think of at least a half-dozen members in my club who would be interested in how this would resolve their creaky top issues. I spent two hours doing all the adjustments on mine. I had to adjust the clamps, fit and test drive and then repeat and then repeat and repeat until I was satisfied. The grease was literally the "icing on the cake" in the creak dept. but not pretty.

[@PatTheRiot]

I like the gummy shtick but the applicator is always 100% useless. Break the thing off and use a finger pinch and a rag. Or clean extensively your trim (not good) before applying it. You want to keep the good cake on and condition to retain new. Once you start cleaning it up hard its starting to age. I follow that for all machines pretty much. Engines, and mechanical parts. It works differentely. It loves grease and dirt. Same goes for your door jams (white lithium grease 😉) or latches. Keep them well lubed proper and you can make any car last forever. Its also the best anti rust (coatin your backpanels and frame 100% with good grease not drippy oils).

[@ladydee552]

I just bought this from Amazon. Can I also use this on my wind shield wipers?

[@InJasonsGarage]

Good question, but not a good idea...it may leave streaks that are hard to remove. You want the treatment to remain on door seals, but not to block your vision. Wiper blades are meant to replaceable on a regular basis, but door seals with proper care should not. I personally change wiper blades out once a year or two, based on usage. These are the wiper blades I have been using for MANY years that I have found are well worth the price: amzn.to/47TzK0o. They are expensive but WELL worth it. Give them a try and see. And for over 20 years I swear by this glass cleaner for glass (and pretty much anything that touches it including wiper blades) : amzn.to/47Ii2N3 So...bottom line...use the right tool for the right job. Gummi Pflege for door seals, quality wiper blades for the windshield, and quality glass cleaner for everything else. It might cost more up front, but does a better job and requires less maintenance...and you will be happier overall.

[@ladydee552]

Ok thank you. 😊

[@jenniferm.4690]

How often should it be applied?

[@willdegato1535]

Twice during the winter season. Once before winter gets severe and then again before January 15, if you get a warmer not so cold sunny day. For the rest of the year, just keep an eye on the door seals-if they look dry you might apply more, just for fun, depending on how OCD you are. The name itself is fun, gummipfleige, and when I tell people they go-What? No, seriously? Gummy bears? Remember my dear, If you take care of your automobile She will take care of you. Applying gummipfleige is oddly satisfying...the rubber takes on a lovely glow of contentment.

@@InJasonsGarage yes. It happened this morning . Door was frozen shut and after I got it opened the actual latch wouldn't latch shut.

And, no, it was frozen shut also but opened after I couple of yanks.

[@InJasonsGarage]

@@coconutgirl816 Ok, go it. This is for weatherstrip and door seals, which it sounds like you need to get your doors open. However, the latch is a different issue and sounds like it needs to be lubricated with the proper product. I'd recommend cleaning any gunk and grime away from it using a rag and an old toothbrush, and then lubricating it with white lithium grease, which you should be able to get at any auto parts store. Hope this helps!

You don't want bad door seals. I bought a used truck with a huge hole rusted through the floor board and the bottom of the door from water getting into the door, rusting out the bottom of the door and then rusting out the floor. I can stick my leg out bottom of the truck through that hole if the carpet wasn't covering it. Take care of your door seals.

[@InJasonsGarage]

This is solid advice. Car door seals are like house seals... "If you leave a hole, something will fill it that works against you." - Jason Debler, Winter 2024 (Someone needs to put that in the books of great historians who gave great advice throughout the history of great historians who gave great historical advice)

[@slonon6410]

if it's water based and your door seals are freezing, won't this cause the same problem? anyone know what the freezing point of it is?

[@InJasonsGarage]

Ha! More than a fair question. Even thought it is water-based, doesn't mean it will necessarily freeze like water does alone. It has more properties to it than that and I have been using it for a long time with no freezing issues. As I type this, it is in the single digit temperatures from the ice storm we are having here and my doors are still not frozen shut. The stuff works and using it is much less expensive than replacing door seals!

Here's a real trick that dont cost nothing: push the door in a little bit first and break the ice lock without pulling on the handle. 😉 (it's not just the rubber that can ice up, its the whole door line.) 303 works fine as well to keep it slick and conditionned. Much cheaper too. 303 replaced pretty much everything slowly. Vynils, trims, headlights, laminated leather, anything plastic/pvc, waterproof bags, kayaks, name it. If its plastic and I like it, its got a coat of 303.

For some reason, there's zero voice, I'd just got done watching another video that played fine on something else, hate to give thumbs down on it but can't hear it, not the best reader especially when must be fast at, I lose and fail at that, I use Synthetic Spray oil that's made for Rubber, haven't read up on W-D40 in a long time, been buying other names that's been proven to me by others, I use Synthetic spray that's great for Rubber seals, many car sales men use on all body mounts to stop any sweaks and something to look for, some like me use often to keep condition in very good shape, I buy cheap sponges and after I wash my vehicles, I wipe them down with a shami that rolls up and fits in plastic tube, best I've ever used, keep one for door jams and under hoods and trunk area, they can be washed but never dry, always should keep wet, even keep one in house for any spills as it picks up any liquids fast and holds about 1 1/2 cups at my guess, then with my cheap sponge that I keep in a zip lock bag just for this purpose, I spray it down good on one side and try to wear a rubber glove to keep oil off hands, I scrub the rubber seals with Sponge part with Synthetic oil made for Rubber and many other things, my yellow Sponge is black on 1 side with oil on it, I use the blue paper towels shop towel and wipe off any extra so none gets on your clothes at all and don't scrub oil out, just a quick wipe of paper towel, yesterday, my truck wasn't done yet and tree service must of been called to tree on wires on pole and my SUV parked under it across the street, just 30 feet, I went to open my door and it was done last year but we had 2 inches of rain for 2 days and weather went from 56 degrees down to 10 degrees with wind chills of 1 degree outside at 8:30 a.m. my handle almost broke, I stopped and then used a quarter in pocket and put at just below trim so if chipped paint, not as noticeable, I pryed with quarter just a tiny bit and kept a steady pull on handle so it wouldn't break off in hand, I've seen people just pull even harder and fast, then handle is in hand before I can say don't do that. Do all Seals that's used and if can wait until SUN hitting vehicle after being that cold or having automatic start, then start vehicle up to help it, still use oil that's made for RUBBER or can cause damage to them, Dealerships sell it in tubes for car's with Sunroofs and T-Tops, this oil I wouldn't use on windows at all, if those seals are starting to dry up, then buy Dealership stuff made for those window treatments. Oil will spear windows as it goes up and down. Not good for that. I'm sure if he made a video that I can't hear it and it's WD-40 then it wouldn't surprise me that it's good for rubber, WD STANDS FOR WATER DISPLACEMENT, NASA Made it by accident for another product and it was there 40th time trying to make it what they were trying to make and someone decided to market this oil for all around use. If vehicle has distributor cap and driving in rain and hitting some big puddles and vehicle stalls and not starting up, spray WD-40 Around the Distributor Cap and it should start right up like magic, might not run perfectly but will get it running again and that's a sign that you can have a hairline crack in the Distributor cap and need a tune-up. I'm no professional at all but learned enough from making mistakes and watching others do this to my vehicle as a friend that knew more than me. Enough to leave an impression on me that I never forgot it, years later Google came out and finally figured out how the name was started. I use BLASTER SILICONE LUBRICANT. it states it works on glass but again I wouldn't but that's me. Spend enough time cleaning stuff that I'll use right stuff if needed. I need to buy some for my sunroof as its dried out and want revive it right so no leaks, will buy Dealership stuff when cold goes away and try then. Best Regards to all. Again if live in cold area, save money and buy what's best for you as long it's good on rubber. I learned of this product from PB BLAST to get rusted nuts off and then they came out with this stuff.

@@Nana55555 What I stated above it 100% true. I never make a false recommendation for any financial gain of any kind. Furthermore, I have zero relationship with the manufacturer of this product. Quite simply, I use it and have been using it for years. It is possible for someone to make review videos about products that they actually believe in. Yes, KZbin is riddled with people saying what someone pays them to say, but I am not one of those people. When it comes to my videos, any opinions expressed are 100% my own. I retain full editorial control over the content in my videos and will never make a false recommendation as a result of any form of compensation. I know some people do, but I don't and I won't.

@@InJasonsGarage YOU STILL GET PAID FOR THE PRODUCTS. 🤦‍♀️ Thus the "half truth", "lie of omission" whatever wording you want to use YOU STILL GET PAID. "STUFF JASON RECOMMENDS" Link as an Amazon Associate in which you earn a commission for every product sold from the link.

@@Nana55555 You are not reading. I state in every video that I may make a commission from the products I review. This is no secret and nothing uncommon. However, Just because I make a commission doesn't mean I am dishonest about what I recommend and for you to continue to demand that I am not honest is becoming rude and insulting. If you do not trust my recommendations, you do not have to follow them.
