I just picked up a tube of Elastomeric Marine Sealant. It looks like a very similar product tailored to boats, is flexible and not silicone. I am going to give it a shot on a few spots that I found last night (exterior work light by battery, door, main roof to wall connection near back garage door).

I would add LA Awesome, a general cleaning product available at Dollar Stores. Straight or diluted it is an excellent cleaning product. Especially for white slide covers:)

Anyone have any info on this product: Camco Rubber Seal Conditioner? The description makes it sound like it is more for slide out tracks than for rubber seals... I was wondering if this could be used to condition window seals and the slide out surround. Anyone have any info?

If it is Rubber Seal Conditioner, it is not track lubricant. For the Schwintek tracks, you would be better off with silicone.As it is, the web designer put the wrong description with this product. Zoom in on the product label and you will see that it is for rubber seals. It looks to be the equivalent of Protect-All Rubber Seal Conditioner.

Just FYI I renamed the topic of this thread to be more inline with the included content. I also updated some previous posts with pictures and added links to post 1. I will continue to edit Post 1 with helpful tips included in this thread for easier reference in the future.
