Waeco Fridges also recommended to use a light film of silicone spray on the fridge door seal to stop it from sticking or twisting when opened.

Welcome to the forum by the way smile

Welcome cjt55, enjoy here and out there.

Try a silicone spray, you can get some from a Auto shop or hardware. Should do the trick for you.

Hi CJT welcome to the forum I use a product called Inox which is available from any good auto accessories store and I have found it better than most silicone sprays.

Try "O" Ring grease put some on your fingers and apply it to both sides of the window/door  seal.

I do this every time I service the Van and we don't have sticky window seals anymore, and it doesn't attract dust.

The "O" Ring Grease can be obtained from your local pool shop or plumbing store.
