WD-40 has a different spray for rubber WD-40 Specialist® Silicone Lubricant. I've used regular WD-40 on doorseals and the like, and I think that they get dried-out over time. The petroleum distillates/penetrants may tend to remove the natural oils in the rubber. I'm also wary of Armor All (due to my old S-10 dashcover cracking, despite weekly usage of Armor All for 10 years).
