WD40 or brake fluid or some defrosting stuff for locks and silicone grease/spray for rubber door sealers.

I'd avoid brake fluid unless you have no other option. The stuff eats through paint REAL FAST.

Brake fluid really helped me several times, and i saw no noticable damage to paint, but i think you're right about using it only when nothing elce is available.
