Sharing entry #3: DIY / home&car maintenance

Third verse, same as the first two:

Over the next few days, I will be trying to post one entry per day where people can share general tips and tricks they think could be valuable to others. No matter how basic they are or how few people you think would profit from them. Just think about how you do things and share this with others.



This entry is all about Do-it-yourself, home and car maintenance

#About every eight weeks I clean the ledges on my windows so that between the rubber seal and the ledge there is no dust or dirt.[I can't think about how to translate what I mean any better, sorry]
It keeps the rubber alive longer.

#Twice a year, in spring and in autum I grease the rubber seals on windows with Vaseline/petrolium jelly. It stops the rubber from drying out during the winter and helps keep it flexible.
