New Zealand Datsun Club

So I am gonna install all the new rubbers myself into my Datsun for something to do

I wanna do it right so I want to know what adhesives you guys recommend for installing rubber weatherstripping into your cars.

1. What have you used?
2. Has it lasted?
3. Where did you buy the product from.

Thanks in advance.

Lol, thanks dylan. I have seen your rubber job in your boot and think I will pass!

lol ahhhh, durex doesnt need adhesive

Ados F2 contact adhesive.
You have to take your time and be very careful. It's too easy to get the glue on parts of the rubber/door that you dont want it on, and once the seal touches the adhesive on the panel thats it, it's stuck. And if you pull it off, it'l tear and leave a bit of the rubber stuck where it had been.

Care, patience, and a steady hand are all mandatory if you want a tidy finished result.

I make commercial doors that have rubber gaskets, we use a form of locktight 424. Im sure its the same stuff Rarespares offer in their rubber kits.

Cheers fro that. I will look into it if I cant get this 3m super weatherstrip adhesive to work (have not tried it but purchased a tube)

i attempted addos and hated it

i have used a polyurathane and was good i my eyes ....its the stuff panelbeaters use to glue parts on

424 is wicked stuff, but go easy with it. making a mess over the rubber with it will pretty much f ck it
