    Installing door gl*** in my project. I replaced the front window (wing window side ) the channel whiskers are new and a bit tight to run the door gl*** up and down. Any body have any luck with something that can be applied or sprayed into the whisker track channel so as the door gl*** will run up and down more smoothly?

    I use graphite dust, windows glide up and down - smooth as silk. It comes in a small plastic puffer bottle.

    I always use a soap bar, works great depending on how tight it is to begin with. The soap works just long enough for the channels & gl*** to marry up after time.
