Both should move up and down, quietly and reasonably fast.

If a window does not work, this most likely means a bad motor, but check the fuse pane...

CentralCoaster What to use for weatherstripping lube? To prevent sticking?

My weatherstrip sticks to my tint, sticks to the roof, it's just sticky. Until it rains anyways. I pulled a big chunk off this morning when removing the roof for the first time in awhile. A big motivating chunk. It needs replacing anyways. Sad as it's GM and only about 5 years old but was never treated with anything and I slapped the roof on and it bonded to it.

What should I be putting on new stuff to prevent sticking, and to preserve it? And hopefully not be greasy/messy.

I was thinking sunscreen, or aero 303 or something for the UV.

Sil-glyde, silicon spray, what Brad recommended, etc. I don't think it matters what it is as long as you use it.
