WurthGummiPflege.JPG Gummi Pflege Wurth
$19.95

The rubber seals around the convertible top on your roadster are a critical maintenance area. Over time the rubber dries out and shrinks which creates water leaks and wind noise and cracks in the rubber. If your top leaks this most likely will solve your problem.

Wurth, a trusted name in automotive lubricants, Rubber Care Gel Stick is the same as Gummi Pflege Rubber Maintenance Stick that is no longer available from BMW (Part Number 82-14-9-407-015) just in liquid form with a foam applicator instead of a messy gel. It is perfect for protecting and revitalizing rubber seals. Silicone free, resistant to dilute acids, alkalis, spray and salt water. Does not attack painted or chrome plated parts. Applying to door & window seals will keep the inside of your car watertight. To remain functional, door and window seals should be treated 3 to 4 times a year. Use your bottle of Gummi Pflege to treat all rubber seals.

To use, simply prime the bottle's pump head and gently rub the foam applicator tip over your door, window, hood, trunk, and most importantly your convertible top seals. Allow the Gummi Pflege protectant to soak in and dry (do not wipe it off, let it sink in).

Price $19.95 + S/H
