Car Gasket

Replacing a door seal on a car or fixing a window seal is done easily and quickly with Mister Glue. It doesn't matter if the car gasket is separated from the metal or if it is torn, Mister Glue will glue rubber to metal and rubber to rubber. Apply the glue to one side only and press the two pieces firmly together. I generally advise applying it to the non porous side of where you are going to attach the door gasket. To the metal. It takes only a few seconds to get a good bond. The closer the two pieces are together the better the bond.

If the window seal is torn and you are attaching rubber to rubber Mister Glue remains flexible when cured so there is no worry that the repaired weather seal will get brittle. Many glues contain solvents and this is why they will dry brittle and corrode the rubber. Having no solvents Mister Glue will not damage the door seal or window seal.

If you are completely replacing a window seal or car door seal then try and scrape all old rubber from the metal before you apply the glue. One needs very little of this product - it goes much further than one would expect.

Mister Glue is an industrial cyanoacrylate (same base as superglue) and as such is much stronger and will last many times longer. Using Mister Glue on a car door gasket is not a temporary fix but a permanent one. If you spill some or need to clean a surface then acetone will remove Mister Glue. Be careful though as acetone will easily remove paint as well. Ideally if you are repairing a car door gasket then open the door so that any glue that drips ends up on the floor. If this is not practical then place some cardboard underneath in any areas where the glue may run and drip. Fabric or cloth is not ideal to use for this purpose for two reasons: one the glue is quite liquid and can easily go through the fabric and secondly, the chemicals may react with some fabrics. So, you certainly do not want to get it on your car seats.

If there is only a short piece of the window seal separated then apply the glue to one side and gently press the rubber against the metal running from one end to the other. Press each section firmly for a moment - this should be all it takes. Mister Glue will wick as well, so you can use in areas where there is only a crack in the rubber- hold the rubber apart as much as possible and put a drop close to the surface - is will go right into the fissure.

You can use Mister Glue for installing or replacing a gasket or window seal in a classic car or new car. Have it handy for other repair such as broken vinyl fixtures and laminate that lifts on the dash of an older car.
