Sunroof Felt (Exterior) BMW E90 - What to Use On It?

Hello Everyone,

I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction for a great product to use on the exterior seal of a 2010 BMW sunroof seal. It looks like felt and rubber, currently there is some old product (wax?) and I need to get it cleaned up and deep black again.

Thanks!
James

 

I tried Armor All vinyl cleaner and it didn't turn out too good on the felt part (dried up and left a white powder on the felt). That's what you get for going cheap. After some searching I found a Dupont product called Krytox that is basically a lubricant for the seal. It can also be used for door seals, trunk seals etc. Hope that helps.

 

Thanks Mike! Any idea where I can get that stuff?

 

I bought some on EBay. It was $15 plus shipping.

 

I looked into Krytox and it does not mention anything about reconditioning the seals, it only says it is to be used as a lubricant. Is this the only product you use on sunroof seals?

 

Here is a picture of the type of damage to a sunroof seal I am talking about.

 

Tarminator or P&S "Solvent X" will handle this task.
