Or you could use vaseline.... Available at a chemist/supermarket near you.

Silicon grease, the solid paste form ideally, not the spray type.

Vaseline is ok for a temp fix but it is a petroleum based product and will soften or even swell some types of seals

Yes, I realised that after I posted. Meant to edit to olive oil.
Only needs a light wipe.

Glycerine is really cheap and was recommended in our previous 2006 Hymer manual for rubber door seals.

I've used silicone spray on my car seals for years, seems to do the job.
