But, and here is the proviso, be careful when you apply to the front
doors. My van had some wax on the interior surfaces of the doors and
the proguard did not adhere perfectly and started to droop in the heat
of summer and caught on the window.

Also, as i dismantle that van I can see where it really stuck and
where it didn't. The front doors, and above the driver/passenger were
drooping. Everywhere else was good.
