Who all has used dry silicone on their windows?

My dealership said that they suggest applying dry silicone to the widow tracks and rubber seal as a maintenance item. This is to prevent windows getting the "slow poke syndrome".

My question is: If the "dry" silicone is in a spray can (liquid form) will it cause any streaks across the glass?

i have used it an yes you get some residue on the window but it cleans off. try spraying right in the channel with the little red tube that comes with the can

I used silicone in the tracks of a '93 Ford Aerostar van that had sticking windows. It worked. I don't know how I managed to get enough silicone in the track with the window still in there, but it worked. To be really effective I think you would need to pull the door panel and shoot silicone on the track with the window up.

Look for the brand "Zip"... It is a dry aerosol spray that is used as a mold release.

Is silicone spray the same as "dry silicone"?

I got this...haven't used it yet.
