Re: [T3] Door seal advice


The 3M stuff is a pain. I used RTV in little beads along the seal and just
fitted the seal in place. Seems to work. Slam the door hard and let it sit a
few good hours at least. I needed to force the door shut for a while.
Nice to know its a tight seal, though. One thing you can do to make sure its
sealing right is to hit the contacting surfaces with some blue chalk, shut
the door, and it should leave a mark everywhere it's supposed to.
You can see where your seal isn't sitting properly because it didn't leave a
chalk mark.. 
Dust the seals with talc to preserve them.
