Coupe Sagging Door Seal Fix

Recommended Posts

Paul good call on waiting for the weather to warm up a bit or else it could be a bit of a waste of time :)

I didn't pull them apart anymore than was needed to get the glue in there mate :)

Best advise is to tape it all up while it dries else gravity takes effect and it just falls down before the glue has had a chance to set and glue on both sides B)

Worked a treat for me :)

FYI lads

I've a mate who works for AutoGlass, I showed him this issues with mine, and he got out this stuff from the van, He said he uses it to make the glass stay in place on car windscreens...

Its amazing! Its not moved in a good 6 months! I'l try and and find out what it is, but from what i can remember, it looks like bluetac, but black, sticky as hell and really really squashy!

10 months now and still all is well ;)

As long as the glue is upto the job yoou just have to make sure that it is held in place properly till it dries, that is why I used the gaffa tape as you could pull it tight and it held really well, bit of a pain to clean off after but worth it :lol:

Right I've spoken to him and If u go 2 a ford dealer they sell it apprently. He doesnt know how much it is but cant imagine its alot. They use it 2 stick focus scuttles down its called tremshield.

Here's what it looks like and its amazing, My mate swears by it, best thing is its water proof.

I hope that helps!

P.S Its not that sticky until you give it presure... it somehow expands and reacts with the inner gue, and then its like sticky as hell! :(

Just fixed (maybe temp fixed) ours a few days ago. We tried some locktight (MOD spec) glue, its been holding there boots together for months so figured it shouldn't have much problems with a bit of lining.

Will try and remember to update if it hold up after a few months or not.

Think the heat just now could be killing a lot of glues.

Well so far the trim along the roof is fine and hasn't come off yet and we've had really hot weather! Trim on the side hasn't bonded properly as I wanted but its better than before. Well here's hoping!
