Window Mechanism Lubrication

(1/3) > >>

Corey Bowcutt:
I just removed one of the rear window mechanisms from my 64.5 convertible.  It appears they originally used some type of grease that over the past 60 years has dried up pretty solid.  I am cleaning things up and want to relubricate the sliders and mechanism.  Is there a preferred lubricant to use for this?  Do folks still use grease and if so what type.  Or do folks use some kind of lubricating spray like silicone?

Thank you,

Corey

DougDyar:
I use spray lube in a can, either white lithium or motorcycle chain lube.

krelboyne:
I use Sil Glyde lubrication.

Same here, applied with a brush

The factory used white lithium grease. I do too.
