Window Gaskets and Armor All

Some of the window gaskets of my Scamp have shrunk over time. I was chatting with another Scamp owner in a campground and he commented that a gasket could be removed and stretched to original size after applying Armor All.

2 questions:

1. Has anyone tried this; and if so, with what results?

2. I did not get the name of the actual Armor All product he referred to. Any suggestions there?

Thanks,

Matt

Shrink with time

MY expierence has ben that the rubber shrinks with age and exposure. Armorall does not undue this damage. Replacement is usually necessary if you want a good watertight seal. The armorall might make it slippery enough to allow you to reinstall it but  not a perminant fix.
