sticky rubbers

Had to open the bonnet today to refill the washer bottle but the rubbers must have frozen together and then tore apart as I opened the bonnet. Not impressed the temperature gauge was reading +1

+1 for Gummi Pflege. My door rubbers were sticking quite badly when it was frosty. Quick wipe round the rubbers attached to the door and those on the body with the product has made a huge difference.

I didn't buy the Sonax product - there are cheaper alternatives available. Just search for Gummi pflege on your favourite auction site Thumbs Up
