MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant Pure Perfluoropolyether Oil (PFPE, also known as perfluoroalkylether) Same type of oil as the popular 105 PFPE oil and VW “Special Lubricant.” LARGE SIZE 15 mL by VOLUME (1 ounce / 28 gm. NET WEIGHT) (15 ml. or 1 fluid ounce by VOLUME or 1 ounce / 28 gm. by WEIGHT – PFPE oils are about twice as heavy as water) in durable and convenient plastic bottle with extra-long tip applicator for No-Waste pinpoint accuracy and full-length tight-fit cap for secure closing. NOTE: Buyers of the product in this listing will receive a bottle with 15 ml (28 gm) of product and the bottle will be approximately half full. We package both the 15 ml and the 30 ml sizes of this product in the same size bottles because smaller bottles of this type are not available, so the bottles containing the 15 ml (28 gm) size sold under this listing will be approximately half full. The 30 ml size in a full bottle is also for sale on eBay under a different listing. THE PROBLEM: Are your roof or door weatherstripping rubber seals ‘weathered”? Do the rubber seals stick or squeak? DO THEY LEAK? Weathered and sticking rubber seals are not only annoying, but repeated rubbing, and sticking of the rubber seals, especially in the heat of Summer or if they become frozen in the Winter, will accelerate seal wear and tear. Worn, pinched or broken seals can cause wind noise and allow rain and snow melt leakage into the vehicle which can cause water damage, weathering, corrosion and other problems inside the vehicle. And replacing worn or torn weatherstripping rubber seals IS VERY EXPENSIVE! THE SOLUTION: MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant IS THE CLEAR SOLUTION. Revitalizing your car roof, door, hatch and trunk seals with MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door Rubber Seal Lubricant will help prolong the life of the seals, and in some cases it can even revitalize a “tired” seal enough to stop air noise and rain leakage without the need for an expensive seal replacement. Why do I need a rubber seal lubricant in the first place? Automotive rubber seals are not perfectly smooth, and rubber by its very nature has some friction to it, even when factory new. Although there might be some mold release lubricant residue on the rubber seals when they are manufactured (the whitish powdery stuff you see on new car rubber seals), this is not intended to be a weatherstripping rubber seal lubricant and wears off a new seal relatively quickly anyway. The result is that friction caused between an unlubricated rubber seal and the sealing surfaces will in most cases begin to bind and deform the rubber seals (automotive service professionals call this “bunching” or “pinching”) which will not only degrade the seals and promote early seal failure but will also cause water from rain and snow to leak inside the vehicle, not to mention annoying air leak whistling while driving. And while seal lubricant is not a substitute for a damaged seal repair, many users also report that the seal lubricant oil has revitalized their problem weatherstripping rubber seals to the point that rain leaks and wind noise have disappeared avoiding the need for weatherstripping replacement. What product should I use? Original equipment manufactureres as well as many professionals recommend a pure perfluoropolyether (PFPE, also known as “perfluoroalkylether” and “oxirane, trifluoro (trifluoromethyl)-, homopolymer”) oil such as MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant as the best choice to revitalize automotive rubber seals. 105 (Kry*** brand) is a well-known product from a very well-known manufacturer (the “DuP” company) that is widely used, and VW offers a similar product they call “Special Lubricant” that some claim is repackaged 105 or similar PFPE lubricant, but we believe that MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door Rubber Seal Lubricant is the best choice. In an issue of “Squeaks & Rattles” Newsletter for the Automotive Industry (issue #2), the manufacturer of 105 itself actually reported that an independent laboratory in collaboration with a major auto manufacturer (The “F” motor company) had concluded that “103 and 104 oils offer improved application characteristics versus the 105 oil” for squeaks and rattles in an automobile, and that this difference is “primarily due to lower viscosity—hence less resistance to flow” of 103 and 104 vs. 105. 105 has a heavy ISO 150 grade viscosity, about the viscosity of a gear oil, which makes it less spreadable and less penetrating. 103 has an equivalent viscosity of ISO 32 grade oil and 104 has an equivalent viscosity of ISO 68 grade oil. Our MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door Rubber Seal Lubricant is a pure PFPE oil with a viscosity equivalent to ISO 46 grade oil (viscosity similar to that of 20 weight light oil grade) which is right between that of 103 and 104 which we believe makes it better suited than 105 and even 103 or 104 for automotive applications. So, what exactly is MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant? MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door Rubber Seal Lubricant is a 100% pure perfluoropolyether oil (PFPE, also known as perfluoroalkylether) just like the popular 105 PFPE oil. MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant has a perfect viscosity consistency that spreads easily and completely at any ambient temperature for perfect automotive rubber seal lubrication. Like other PFPE oils, MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant is fully inert and totally unreactive and will not adversely affect ANY rubber or plastic parts. But, is a grease better? Some users might be considering a grease to lubricate their rubber seals. Grease is basically a thickened oil product. Since most greases contain petroleum distillate base oils, thickeners (which is what “holds” the base oil molecules together) and other additives which can possibly be absorbed by the seals and cause degradation of the rubber, we do not recommend using a grease to lubricate automotive rubber seals. Also, greases, by their very nature of being “held together” by the thickener, can separate, break down and perhaps even gum up especially in very hot Summer temperatures. In addition, greases generally do not penetrate into the rubber as well as oil so they do not help fully revitalize the seals, and greases tend to remain on the surface which can attract and retain dust and debris which can actually damage the seals even further. What about lubricating powders? Some car owners have tried talcum (baby powder) and other lubricating powders. While these can add some lubricity to the rubber, they do not penetrate it and “revitalize” it like MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant, and powders generally wear off the rubber surface more quickly than the oil and can adhere to and possibly discolor clothing. What about silicone oil or other protectant liquids? Some manufacturers specifically state that silicone oils should NOT be used on automotive rubber seals and weatherstripping. Some silicone oils can react with the rubber to soften it and can slowly degrade the rubber, and some silicone oil products can be slightly acidic. Other protectants may work OK initially but they will wear off more quickly than MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant and in many cases other protectants require several applications and more frequent application to have an effect, and other protectants may not work as well to fully revitalize the rubber seals. We guarantee it! We are confident that you will find MicroLubrol™ ATD™ Auto Top & Door™ Rubber Seal Lubricant to be a superb product, and that it will work at least as well (and we think better!) in comparison to 105, VW “Special Lubricant” and other similar products.
