I am putting together doors for my newest project. I installed the new rubber window scraper seal. The rubber is nice and soft. The problem is the window goes up but down is a problem. The rubber sticks to the window and wants to pull in. I cleaned the window and this does not help. I am sure as the rubber ages, it will get harder and work properly. I am thinking I need to coat the rubber with something but I don't know what will work best. Anyone have this issue? Suggestions welcome
