I have only used Armorall once on my car (got a sample). It made the
tire sidewalls look nice, but it seemed greasy and I somehow doubt it
adds "grab" to plastics or synthetic rubber materials, in fact, I
somewhat suspect it makes things slicker.

Although possibly unrelated, my wife bought a low mileage car a couple
of years back from a used car dealer (it was a 1986 model) which had
been "detailed" before sale. The interior (vinyl and cloth seats)
looked great. However, literally within weeks after buying it, and
with gentle use (no kids, no dogs, etc) the vinyl completely fell
apart at all the stress points. Whatever they used to make the seats
look new and clean obviously caused the plastic to so weaken that it
nearly completely disintegrated. The seats "aged" in 2 months more
than they did in the nearly 20 years before. I'm guessing that
something similar to Armorall was used, although I have no proof.

Bill-

There is a product for use on automobile tires and plastic dashboards,
called Armor All (http://www.armorall.com/). Used on your printer
rollers, I understand it replaces the plasticizer chemical that has
been
absorbed by printer paper, so they will again grab the paper.
