Title: Glue for door/boot seal rubbers
Post by: Gallop on September 20, 2022, 12:56:49 pm
The other day I noticed a boot seal rubber was loose. In the past I would use 3M weatherstrip adhesive - https://caredistributors.com.au/products/3m-weatherstrip-adhesive-black-8011.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsJe4nq-i-gIVZJNmAh12rQIlEAQYAiABEgLxBfD_BwE

However, I can't find the 3M product in Australia. What does everyone use to glue on a boot seal rubber?

I should have said I can't find the product at a walk in shop in Aust - I know I can order it online (but am tired of paying shipping for everything).

I used this on mine. Still holding after several years.

With the boot lid, strongly suggest removing the lid from the car and doing it on the bench so you're not fighting gravity.

He wanted to be able to walk in to a shop and pick some up, presumably in his home town of Brisbane. Custom Mustangs here in Melbourne is a great shop but their shipping prices are a bit up there and he wanted to avoid that.

As it happens, Gallop, I'll be heading down to Custom Mustangs in the next few days for some bits for my car so I could pick some of this up and just post it to you which shouldn't cost much. PM me if you want to take this up. However, it looks like Blackwoods have the 3M stuff and I guess there's one of them in Brissy somewhere.

The permatex stuff works really well but melts paint

Thanks for the help everyone. Geoff - thanks for the Blackwoods tip and the offer of Custom Mustangs - appreciate it. The Blackwoods' Brissy shop is not too far from me so I will give them a try.
