I use the regular carnuba wax on the seals with a separate applicator (the black gets on the applicator). Over time they will take on a nice low gloss luster and IMHO will last longer and not crack. Through years of doing this on all my vehicles, I have never had an issue and my seals look new. The one seal around the rearmost window is a different rubber material and has proven more resilient to waxing but with clever wiping skills it all looks consistent.
