Toilet Seal Lubricant?

Home Depot, Lowe's, Ace...Plumbing dept.
O-Ring Lubricant..

You should try and keep some water in the bowl to help prevent this. If evaporation in the problem, use RV antifreeze. It will last a real long time in there before it disappears.

ok, thanks. after our first outting, it sat in storage a few weeks, and did evaporate. i'll give both a try.

appreciate it.

When I read the subject, at first glance it said Toilet Seat Lubricant. Crisco?

Then when I read it again, I had to ask "How did a seal get into their RV in the first place?" and "Is it on the toilet, or in the tank?". It must be in the tank, and the lubricant is to try to get it to pass through the sewer hose.

Seriously, though, antifreeze or O-ring lubricant. Either should do it, with the O-ring lubricant being better for reconditioning it.

You can also use food grade mineral oil (a laxative) from the drug store.

That might make the seal a little thinner too. Good idea! :)

Fill the bowl at least 1/2 way with water and close the lid and it should take a long time to evaporate. Key is to keep it under water.

Storage......olive oil, enough to cover seal

It won't evaporate
It will lubricate seal
It will keep seal flexible
