Tegan, as I said when you were down the first time, if you can;t get any seal stuff a quick cheap and readily avaliable is is vaseline on the seals! It can be a bit grubby when you take the panels off if you get it on you, but its better then getting wet!

noooooooooooo don't use vaseline... least that's what i remember ben telling me... old posts search should bring it up, hehe

worked for me on my SW-20 asa quick fix as I am at least half an hour away from any halfrauds!

something about it wearing out the rubber if i remember correctly...

Yep, vaseline is a petochemical product " Petrolium Jelly" - it will react with the rubber and will decompose it not over night but...................

"vaseline" Good for the wifes dry lips not your t-bar !

Silcone grese is the best quicky or there are some rod type things you insert, not sure on that tho........

Good luck.

Vas will rot the rubber .. the OLD vas was okay, but the new stuff will rot it all.

Just get a water based lube ;) or Silicone spray ..

if got some spray at home, do mine every month or so
