Olympus SW users - seals/gasket question

To all of you Olympus SW users - do you lubricate the seals/gaskets with anything like you're supposed to do with more expensive underwater housings?

Thanks!

Haven't yet, but need to before this years trip. My guess is I will lubricate it with the same stuff I use on my pool equipment seals/rings. Its not petroleum based, but more liquid-like. Peteroleum based lubricants can lock up pool orings and seals so my guess is it could do the same to the camera seals.
