Zymol don't make crap products, but cannot perform miracles on knackered old seals

Nothing is going to make a knackeres seal perfect again, Zymol Seal is a very good product but pricey, I use Einszett Gummi Pflege on mine and customers cars, you should clean the seals with all purpose cleaner before application though.

seal feed by swissvax, not the cheapest but (did) a really good job on mine.
