Weather stripping
« on: May 22, 2016, 05:11:37 PM »
I need to replace all the weather stripping around the doors of my 1951 Kaiser Special. After I scrape the old stuff off, how does the new stuff stay on? I can't imagine that it's rjust adhesive.
Cheers.

Use 3M Fast Tack Trim Adhesive, part number 08031. It's available at most any auto parts store.
