We recently had our double glazing sprayed which looks fantastic however it would seem that the overspray has made the rubber seals on the doors and windows sticky.

Before we sort the paint on the contact point I need to stop the rubber being sticky. Any ideas on a way to clean them without destroying the rubber?

The paint is water based.

Thanks.
 
French chalk might take the tack away, but if not and they remain sticky, then replace the rubber seals. Don't use talc because today's powder is not talc its corn starch which will promote mould growth.
