Silicon grease for top
Recently I purchased a 07 S2K. The previous owner gave me a tube of Honda silicone grease called "Shinetsu" ,honda part #08789-9013.
When I ashed him what it was for all he indicated was that he was told to use it on the top. Obviously he never used it.
Can someone shed some light on where and how often this is to be applied?
Thanks so much.

Use it on EVERY exposed rubber seal on the car. Soft top, weather stripping under the hood, door seals, trunk seal .......
Again, anything rubber except for the tire treads and the foot pedals.

It does not have a hard top.
I find it interesting that it is for the rubber weatherstripping. I have always thought silicon was considered bad for rubber much like ArmorAll.
So it is to be applied like some sort of ointment for the rubber? Not on moving metal roof parts?

It is made to plump the seals so they make good contact with their mating parts, and it is designed to protect the seals so I don't think that it is harmful. Brake silicone grease is compatible with rubber parts so I don't think all silicone is bad, but I do remember the controversy with Armorall and the silicone in that product being bad for vinyl products, maybe not rubber ?.
