This is for the first time guys that have never had a door freeze closed.
What happens is get a little water on the door seal and then it freezes out
and you can't get into you truck, car or other things with a rubber seal.
The quick and easy fix is a bit of silicone spray lubricant on the rubber
seals. it keeps the ice from sticking and locking you out in the cold.
It also works well on trunk lids on your car and then there are all the
tool boxes in the back of your trucks and freeze closed and then you
can't get at the tool to fix what ever happens to be wrong while your
stuck when out getting that prized Christmas tree for the wife and kids.

So what you do is get a can of spray silicone spray lubricant and put it
on all the rubber seals and they will not stick. It also helps keep the rubber
in good shape and not get stiff and crack.
Using Silicone Spray Lubricant and When Not To!
One point that they make is where not to put it.

Manufacturers of silicone spray products promote this product like the best thing
since sliced bread. It is great... but some of the applications they recommend may be inconvenient or
downright hazardous. Because it is so slippery and persistent, avoid using silicone spray under the following conditions:

On any surface upon which you walk, sit, or lay. You'll slide off!!
On painted surfaces... the paint sucks up the silicone and makes paint prep ever more onerous than it normally
is (if that's possible)! Paint will not stick to silicone, so always minimize overspray when using silicone near
painted areas (door hinges, locks, etc.).
On any item that you have to handle, such as the outside of a gun, fishing rod, door handle, etc.

Happy and Safe cold weather driving.

I use baby powder on the rubber door seals. Silicone lubricant attracts dirt.

 

Been doing this for years with silicon,and dirt has never been a problem.Going back and forth over the passes all winter long,I apply once in November and good all winter.

 

Not sure what brand of silicone spray you are using, but of the several brands that I have tried, it goes on wet, and once the carrier evaporates is 100% dry, no dirt attraction at all.

I do this every November, once per season. It causes the water to bead, not letting it form a seal around your door rubber.
