Mo Murphy Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 So, with a new rear door coming my thoughts turn to how to seal the old type rear door glass now that dum-dum is no more. What are people using now ? Is there something that won't dry out and fall out like dum-dum does ? Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger110 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 (edited) If i may add to this, the item listed is a butyl strip with adhesive added to allow the glass to stick to it. If you visit a builders merchants, or B&Q, Screwfix then you could pick up some flash band which is a similar product and has added benefits around the vehicle other than windows ( it's wider than the strip ). I use flash band on the bodywork at the base of doors to protect from standing water over time as these areas become prone to water ingress. Just a thought bodywork at the bottom of the tub by the rear door.

steve200TDi Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Mo, I used a tube of sealant for my rear window. I think it was something like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/290816400419 Steve (I searched for windscreen tube sealant) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveturnbull Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Pretty sure I stuck mine in with a generous bead of RTV, probably because I had some to hand, and it's good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
