if it's just seals sticking to the frame .
spray them down liberally with silicone spray.

or WD-40.
or wipe them clean with some solvent .
then apply silicone spray.

I use silicone spray where I want a lube that is not oily.
like on window tracks, for example.
it's good stuff to have around.

Hi to all,

I'm not sure what to do with them.  They are kind of sticky, hard to open
them.  Sometimes I'm afraid the seal would stick to the body and tear.  I
know, the factory had some fine powder on it or something that now has
vanished.
The question is; is there anything that is used for this purpose?
Anyone?

Best wishes,
Zoltan
