Lubricating the Sliding Windows

[Barry Cohen]

Does anyone have ideas as to how you clean/lubricate the sliding windows.

It seems that all the felt hinders any solution.

Liquid Rollers (made to slicken up the bunks on a boat trailer) works for us. It is a MaryKate product, available at West Marine and other retailers. We clean the fuzzy stuff in the tracks with vinegar/water (it really helps get the salt off), rinse, let it dry, then spray it with Liquid Rollers. Some silicone sprays attract dirt, this stuff doesn't seem to.

Best wishes,
Jim B.

Harken makes a product called MacLube, (I think), which worked very well for us. In the sailing gear section.

Had a can of Liquid Rollers but hadn't thought of the window tracks. Went right out and tried it. It works! Thanks for the post because we have been struggling with the windows for some time.

Just picked up a can of Liquid Rollers at West Marine.

I will report back on its performance.

Liquid Rollers appears to perform as advertised!
