Such as the battery door, etc. Would you use silicone grease to lubricate them to maintain waterproofness?

I just follow the manufacturers guidelines every time - I am hoping they know what is best for their own cameras!

My TG-5 gets dunked in tap water and power cycled after every dip and the seals get wiped.
