We have to replace the 'o' rings on our black water valve slide;can we use Vaseline on the new gaskets for lubrication as opposed to a commercial product?

Vaseline is a petroleum product and will damage the seals.
You should use silicone grease available at swimming pool supply store.
We in the aviation industry use "Parker "0" ring" lube, that is produced by Parker Hanflin corp. they manufacture about 99% of all "O" rings used in all applications, and it is Vaseline.
