Lttle help here please...

Need a little advise from you guys/gals. What should I use or put on my rubber moulding around the targa top to keep it from drying out or cracking. I know they make different products, but would like to know what ya'll use on your vettes. I assume it can be used on all the rubber seals and moulding on the car.
Thanks,

I use dielectric (silicone) grease and I believe the GM stuff is identical.

Do you know where it can be purchased at? Autozone, advance auto, Wal-mart?

Most auto parts stores should have it since it is commonly used in spark plug boots and electrical connectors. Just ask for a tube of dielectric grease.

dielectric grease is the answer, found at any auto parts store.
