What glue is best for weatherstripping doors

Post by JimE »

I'm ready to install the weatherstrip on the doors, I have 3M's Super weatherstrip Adhesive but was wondering what is better. Jim

That is what I've always used, I understand it now comes in black & not that yellow.
Just foolow the directions, be good to have an extra pair of hands, not required but it helps.

That is the good stuff, but it gets ugly fast if you aren't careful.
I have used it and it is very good, VERY STICKY! 3M also makes
a black product just called Weather Strip Adhesive, no Super.

I have some other black stuff I used on my Crew Cab, after the
yellow was getting a little ugly. I think it might have been from
Permatex?? It seems to be working good.

The trick is to work in small sections, about 12 inches a time has
worked good for me.
