MWUR9 3M Silicone Lubricant - Dry Version, 08897, 8.5 oz

This summer when my wife and I had a new sliding glass door and screen door along with a couple windows installed. By winter we felt a draft around the windows and called the installer back to fix it. He did a great job and also noticed that the original installer put the screen in backwards. He fixed that too, but noticed that it did not roll as smoothly as it should. The installer recommended that we use a dry silicone lubricant because he said it will not cause problems of built up product of wet lubricants.Accordingly, I searched the internet looking for a reliable one and chose this brand. It had a red straw taped to the side that worked great. I sprayed the top and bottom runners of both the screen door and the glass door using the straw provided.Both doors now open and close smoothly and quietly.This product was quick and easy to use and works great.I recommend this product to family, friends, and others who are looking for a dry lubricant for sliding doors and like usage.Enjoy!

Amazing stuff!I use it for my double hung windows, because it doesn’t leave any residue and it’s very easy. I had a window that was stuck for years and after I used the straw to spray the silicone down into the tracks , I was able to open the window immediately. I would caution you to wear a mask while using it, because it can irritate your lungs if you breathe it in. my wife, if you use it indoors be very careful because a lot of the silicone will get on the floors making them very slippery. I don’t recommend that you use this for anything like lubricating, toys or games, such as air hockey surfaces, because it will spill onto the floor and make ipeople much more likely to slip and fall. If you’re going to lubricate things, it’s preferable that you do it outdoors if possible.

I am a lifelong fan of 3M and their products. I trust them completely to always provide a well engineered, well designed and highest quality product (ever if I must pay more for it).I bought this for a "squeak" in the front suspension of my Mercedes convertible. It's embarrassing to drive around in such a beautiful and quality car and have people stare at it when it hits a bump.Two days after the product arrived, the squeak went away. I didn't even have a chance to take it out of the shipping box.Now that's an impressive product...........yet so like 3M.

Works great for vehicle window runs and rubber weather strips because of the high oil content.Also, for all of those Ford Vista Roof owners out there: This makes your Vista Roof slide faster than it ever has! The problem is with the rear slides and channels. The key is to bend the end of the red spray tube at a 90 to 120 degree angle and then shove it between the rubber lips on the top of the vehicle where the rear metal slide arms travel back and forth. Manipulate the spray tube to spray the upper inside and the lower inside part of the "C" channel for the full length of the "C" channel on both sides of the vehicle. The slide channels open to the outboard of the vehicle so you will be spraying towards the center of the vehicle. If you've done it right, you'll know! If the Vista Roof slows down again in the future, just re-apply the silicone spray to the rear channels.Well, shame on me for not double checking my lubricants. When I used just silicone spray on nylon slides(like mentioned above for Vista Roof) I forgot, it does free-up the slides, but the roof will then shudder near closing. The proper chemical to use is a product made by Wurth called HHS-K(door hinge lubricant). It sprays out as a liquid and solidifies as a grease for staying power. Hope this helps.

My 30 year old 8' Andersen French patio door had become nearly impossible to open. So I cleaned the tracks and applied this stuff. It made the operation a little easier for a few days. Then back to hauling with 2 hands. I figured I needed new rollers.I had it serviced professionally, and learned that due to settling of the house, the header over the door had bowed in the middle and was pressing down on the door. It took some fancy carpentry to fix that. But it was not the fault of the lubricant.I tried it on my double hung windows, and now they slide so well they won't stay open!

i have tried all types of lubricants for my 10-year-old sliding patio doors without much success. I wish I had known about this product before. One note - follow the instructions to the letter. Make sure the "old" stuff is off your track before applying. I know, I know, every manufacturer tells you the same thing. But this time I used my wife's Dawm power wash platinum spray. It cleaned the track, top and bottom and was a perfect clean awaiting lubrication. The one thing I did notice after application is that the door doesn't slide like it used to. I suspect age has something to do with that - but it is far better than before.

This is one of the best "Wet" silicone sprays I've found out there, the amzoil product is pretty good too.Most of the silicone sprays you buy at the auto parts stores don't have much liquid silicone in them, this 3M product does. I use it to spray the guides on my salt water rods, reels, equipment (After I rinse them off with fresh water, of course). Odorless and colorless, great all around lubricant where you don't want that SMELL of oil and la-stability of a real coating on whatever it is you're applying it on.For fishing reels I remove the spool and just simply wet them down, I let them soak for a few hours, then blow them off with my air compressor, wipe them down and voila, good as new. Works well too when you're out in the saltwater. I also spray my fishing eyelets on my rods, and generally just wipe the whole rod down (Assembled, don't put it on the inside section of the ferrule or it could cause problems).Great on squeeky doors, spraying down outdoor knives, cable lubricant, whatever... Spendy but it is a good product compared to the Over the Counter cheapos you get.
