Bootlid seal glue

Post by **Mogwai** » Wed Feb 27, 2008 10:29 pm

I'll be fitting a new boot seal soon & will probably use evostick to glue it on as its quite flexible plus I already have some. Has anyone used or know of anything better or will evostick be fine for this
Thanks

Evostick will be fine. Timebond is also very good.

Evostick sounds good, my seal has come off once already after using a spray adhesive, if it comes off again I shall go the evostick way!

I used domestic silicon sealer.

I used Bostick contact adhesive - doesnt react with cellulose paint. seemed to work well as long as its given time to dry - close the lid and leave it for 24hrs.

If you have ever got 'fish eyes' in a paint finish, you would destroy everything containing Silicon in your garage. Horrid stuff outside of a bathroom.
