The details
Description
Keep every moving part gliding smoothly with Sil-Glyde®, the original silicone grease trusted by mechanics, DIYers, and industry pros. Its high-film-strength formula clings where you apply it, protecting parts from friction, moisture, and extreme temperatures without melting, freezing, or washing off.
Why Sil-Glyde outperforms ordinary grease
- Wide service range — effective from -20°F to 400°F for under-hood, exterior, and household jobs.
- Multi-surface safe — won’t swell rubber or harm metal, plastic, wood, or glass.
- Stays put — grease consistency resists vibration and wash-down far better than thin silicone oils.
Common uses
- Door and trunk weatherstrip seals
- Window channels and sunroof tracks
- Hood strips, rubber bumpers, and gaskets
- Hinges, latches, cables, and shop tools

Frequently asked questions
What can I use Sil-Glyde on?
Hinges, latches, weatherstrip, window channels, cables, tracks, gaskets and metal-to-metal contact points — indoors or under the hood.
Will it harm rubber or plastic?
No. The silicone formula won't swell, crack or stain rubber, plastic, wood, glass or painted surfaces.
Will it wash off in rain or a car wash?
No — its grease consistency clings and resists wash-down far better than thin silicone sprays.
What temperature range does it handle?
Effective from -20°F to 400°F, so it holds up under the hood, outdoors, and around the house.
