The main case seal is made from a foamed silicone cord.
Exception: The screen seal on the 2600 and 3600 PDA cases are made out of butyl rubber.
What material is used for the o-rings/gaskets?

Is there a coating recommended to maintain the gasket? I would guess silicone spray or silicone oil. The main case seal is made from a foamed silicone cord. Exception: The screen seal on the 2600 and 3600 PDA cases are made out of butyl rubber. To maintain the gasket, rinse with water and towel dry. Run the cord through your fingers to remove any residual water. Apply either a silicone oil or spray and make sure it coats entire surface of gasket. Apply more if gasket seems to "dry".
