The thread that mentioned silicone grease was about sealing o-rings.  Silicone
grease (I use Dow Corning #5) should be available from your local bearing
wholesaler. (King Bearing, Kaman Industrial Technologies, etc.)  Look in the
phone directory under bearings.

As for sealing "aging window seals", I think that the best option is to leave
that to the professionals.  Go to your local auto glass replacer and have them
do the deed.  Should be relatively inexpensive.
