Squeaky Rubbers ?

[jims2]

Since i had the new roof fitted i noticed this almost constant squeaking from the rubbers and its becoming a real nuisance. Any ideas how to resolve, can i smear a small amount of vaseline on the offending area (ooh err)
or is that liable to cause problems with rubbers sticking to each other ?

After they have climaxed, and the squeaking should subside

I dont see why not, Id be inclined to do something similar, unless anyone knows whether vaseline doesnt go well with, ahem... rubbers?

KY jelly?

or, more seriously, ArmorAll (or similar).

A very light smear of silicone grease usually cures any squeeking rubbers...

Podie, over to you

Lubricate the offending rubber with Silicone PTFE Spray for less friction under flex when going at it hard

If you're not topless during the act, you'll have to insert your nozzle between the flaps. Be sure to pull out after the first few squirts and have a box of tissues to the ready, there may be some dribble to deal with afterwards.

As always asking a question on here is an education

Sorry guys, finding that with Chim ownership I'm always seeming to come a bit later to gags on the S forum…

Better than being premature, though Pod
