Just moved back to NY, picked a great time to do it too. Anyhow, my car, originally from NY has gotten used to the Florida weather over the last 3 years. A little rain, sleet and freezing weather the first night I was here made it a pain to actually get into my car first thing in the morning. I used the old hot water trick to get in and it hasn't been wet/cold enough since to cause major issues, but hard winter is right around the corner.
My car has two sets of door seals, one on the body frame and one on the door frame. I'm wondering if there is anything I can do/apply to prevent them from freezing together. I assume it happens from moisture seepage that freezes, but I'm not sure of any tricks to prevent it. I'm thinking maybe coat/treat the seals with an oil of some sort. The seals themselves have grown naturally "sticky" a bit over the years, so that might help. I just don't want to ruin them.
