I am not sure about aluminum windows Betsey but you do have a good
memory. years ago Don Patterson suggested on the blind handyman
show to use Silicone spray for my vinyl windows and it works
fantastic. I did however find out it does not alast as long in the
kitechen as one = window is near the stove and when they cook fried
foods that stuff in the air seems to plugh up the sliders so a
simple wash with dish detergent and a reapplication of the silcone
spray makes the window a one finger touch a great deal . Lee
