Hi all
I have a windscreen rubber question, on removing the faded central strip from the good windscreen rubber to fit a new one I noticed that under the windscreen rubber is another rubber, I though there was only one rubber around the windscreen not 2 pieces.
Please see pictures

Mine's one piece, are you sure the two parts are definately seperate, and not one piece coming apart somehow?

I would guess that it is simply thick black mastic as there would be no room to fit 2 rubbers

That's probably a better answer!

Hi David and Les
You where correct, a large amount of black filler had been squeezed under the rubber when it was fitted, this had gone hard and brittle but retained the moulded shape of the rubber.
When I tried to peel it up it just crumbled.
Now need to replace the rubber, better now before the respray.
Thanks

Better to leave the screen out until after the respray - so the paint covers all the metal. Then fit a nice new rubber, and there shouldn't be any need for mastic/sealer.
