Hi,

Thanks all for the suggestions.

Will give Glycerine a try.

Any idea where to get/buy a very small amount ?


If you have a glycerin modem, you might even be able to get a free
sample online.

Or a solid-and-liquid modem. But they don't download as fast.

Hello,

Have a bird feeder that is held against the glass window via the typical
soft plastic suction cups.

They hod, but only for a relatively short time; perhaps a day or two.

What is the secret to getting them to hold on longer ?

Moisten first ?

Light oil ?

Or,...?

Is there any kind, brand, or style, that perhaps works better, that I
can replace with ?

Thanks,
Bob

I've found glycerine works pretty good. GlysoMed hand creme works too.
Some people use soap. Not enough of either to allow it to slide down
the window!!!
