Does silicone oil penetrate rubber and 'migrate' its plasticiser?
TIA
When I was restoring a Record Deck, I bought some rubber
conditioner, which worked well on the drive belt. It might also
work for seals. I can find the details if you wish.
Cheers Davey, any help much appreciated.
It is:
Platenclene, Print Roller Cleaner and Restorer.
Presumably used mainly in the printing industry.

Hope this helps.
No idea where I got it from, but it was online. A Search produces
hits, including Farnell, aka CPC, so that was probably my source.
