Rubber renew product for Cab pillars?

Hey everyone.
is there such a thing as a rubber/ silicone applicable liquid that can be used to refurbish the soft rubber pillars that the windows of a Cab rest against?
mine are still good but the rubber is wearing off thinking there might be a product for that?
thanks a bunch

Rubber or is it the outer canvas layer you’re talking about?

yes that is correct. for the two posts if you will that the window sits against once the top is up.
mine has the fabric showing, but i'm sure there's a tape or silicone type product i can brush on or stick to it?

Post a photo. Targas have these too, and seeing the fabric is normal.

You can peel off the outer layer and redo it with thin black canvas and 3m super77, it’s easier than you think. You do have to remove the whole thing. Most fraying is caused by that piece not sitting far enough inwards not backwards. If you loosen the screws and retighten it while pushing inwards as much as possible, that stops the window from catching the edges.

ATP Automotive AT-205. I've used this on rubber bushings and the like with very good results. Perhaps this is what you are looking for?
