RE: [Chrysler300] Windshield rubber seal





Loren,

 

I have used Gojo to rejuvenate factory windshield gaskets.  Do not soak it in Gojo.  Instead, you apply it to the seal and rub it in with your hands, like putting hand lotion on your skin.  Let it stay on for a few minutes, then wipe it off.  Wear nitrile gloves when doing this as it will stain your skin.  Use your fingers to get it nicely in to the glass channel.   If you leave it on too long the rubber may swell and render the seal unusable.  Do not expect this to work with a seal that has severe sun damage and is checked and cracked, it won’t fix the cracks, but it will rejuvenate the hard rubber so that its pliability is restored making it easier to install.  Use the original Gojo, not the stuff with pumice.

Subject: [Chrysler300] Windshield rubber seal

 

 

Sum years ago there was a discussion  about the rubber seals on Chrysler windshields. The consensus was that the old rubber seal could be rejuvenated by soaking in GoJo hand cleaner. The old rejuvenated seal would fit and work better than a new repro seal. I am trying to do this with the seal on my G. I would like to hear from anyone who has done this with tips on the best way to do it. The GoJo is quite thick and does not look like it will go into the glass and body channels even if the seal is immersed in it. Can I thin it with water? How much can I twist it to get it into a container without leaving permanent kinks?  Any details will be appreciated. 

Thanks,

Loren Nelson in N. Georgia
