I talked to a guy years ago at a car show. He had a numbers matching restored truck.
He said the best windshield gaskets were to original gaskets. He said he would always break the windshield to save it.
Then he would put it in a bucket of water with ivory soap and Tide.
He said it would be as soft as a new one when it came time to use it.
Not sure of the time frame or the water mixture ratios, but I always remember that story.
