I have some original door weatherstriping for a 68 Camaro door that has been
sitting around for years. One of the ends is starting to get a little dried
out. I would like to soften them up so they can be used again.
Any ideas on what I could use to do this?? I have heard about using
Vaseline or synthetic oil. Has anyone tried and prooven these or other
products?
I hope to hear from some of you on this subject.
Thanks Everyone

Get new ones. They're easy to come by.

Do you want polite or do you want sincere?

I have a '67, and I agree that replacement is the best move.
