I am purchasing some Krytox grease which is supposed to be very effective and very safe for just about every type of surface. It is also very expensive but a little goes a long way. I am actually going to use it for my rubber door, hood and trunk seals along with Zymol conditioner. I am also going to to try it on that stopper/damper part Mike mentioned.
