Baby Powder
Baby Powder
For slide seals, Darren’s old-school method is baby powder on a sock—simple and effective. The goal is to help the rubber stay slick and “exercise” it so it doesn’t keep folding the wrong way with memory. I like this because it’s inexpensive and not a mystery chemical cocktail.
Pros
- +Helps rubber seals slide and flip instead of sticking
- +Cheap and easy to apply with a sock
- +Doesn’t leave a wet, sticky residue
Cons
- -Can be messy if you overapply
- -Won’t fix a torn, cracked, or improperly compressed seal
