Silicone will make rubber look good. It swells (starts dissolving) the
rubber. This is fine for firewall plugs, trunk/door seals, and stuff
like that. Suspension bushings will benefit from this too but only when
they are old and need help. Don't do it to new bushings. Or next year
you will be wondering why your new bushings are soft and squishy.
