I also put some new waist seals on recently and had the same problem of them
grabbing. I just kept closing the window to put them back up and they stopped
doing it after a week or so (which is not a lot of window use).
I suspect that they lost their newness and stuck less to the glass. Never did
put anything on the glass. I do plan on using Rain-X like the others. Use it on
all my cars' windows, lights and external mirrors. Need it in Oregon in the
winter months. Just love driving down the interstate in heavy rain with the
wipers off and the rain zipping off the windscreen faster that it lands. It
actually is less stressful in that kind of weather.

Subject: waist seals
Hallo,
Just got done doing the waist seals on the passenger door.
Thanks to the archive, I had some problems, but nothing major.
They're in, and are a huge improvement.
However (there's always something, eh?), the window won't roll down without
grabbing the outer seal and taking it down with itself into the door.
Putting some water on the window-seal interface solves this.
The seal is visibly installed correctly; fits flush, all 7 clips, and seals
the window very nicely.
Any ideas on how to get the flippin' window to not grab the outer seal? I
really don't want to trim a 1/32 off the seal.
