Rubber Cleaning tip?

[J Constantino <jjcon2@yahoo.com>]

Oh Wise and Knowledgable Listers:

The new rubber glass seal for my backlight is coated
in some type of waxy, gummy yet flaky light brown
coating.  I suspect is is the rubber industry's
version of cosmoline.

Does anyone have an effortless, effective method of
cleaning this stuff out of all the grooves, slots,
lips and flanges that make up a window seal?

TIA
