Hey Guys,

Newbie comment, but I've never done the rubbers before, what do you guys use as an adhesive? Mine are absolutely stuffed so I definately need to do them soon. Was thinking about having a stab at the clarks ones.

Apparently Rare Spares give you a small container of Loctite Prism 404 or 406 can't quite remember the number when you buy rubber kits now. I used it to reattach bits that didn't stick. Its awesome stuff and better than superglue, bloody lethal on skin :oops: :lol: :lol:

clarks are sharks, i used to have clarks in my doors, they were $6 a metre listed as "FE door rubber" but now they get it from spectrum and last time i checked they wanted about $16 per metre so i thought stuff you A holes and bought the rubbers from american autos (rare spares), the ones at american autos have corners and a different profile rubber under the scuff plate
spectrum and rares are competive, both sell some rubbers cheaper or dearer than each other

Locktight 424 keep it in the fridge when you arnt using it it will last a lot longer and when using it a couple of SMALL drops every couple of 25.4mm will do the trick
