SuperPaulie Posted July 27, 2021 Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 Bringing a thread back from the dead. Got a right flocking issue on my driver door where it has worn off the horizontal outside weather strip. Probably removed it off myself thinking it was just mouldy cr*p previously. I've gummipflege'ed the rubber and polished and waxed the window which helps for a short while, whilst also putting the gumni all over the window... Those "flocking kits" actually any good, would it even stick to the rubber? £200 a side is tough to stomach for a new seal, especially as I've got a new roof coming next week.

Thoughts? @SuperPaulie So don't expect factory finish (at least with my level of talent) but I did use a kit to make a window seal look less bald. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264163164957 Before After Edited July 28, 2021 by iborguk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperPaulie Posted July 28, 2021 Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 Decent. My baldness is on my head and the horizontal "scraper" I guess on the top of the door/bottom of window probably a lot more prone to getting dragged off as it's in a wet area? You reckon it would hold up? Won't be visible as it's on the inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propofol Posted July 28, 2021 Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 Looks good. Can you feedback on how durable it is for us please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Propofol Posted July 28, 2021 Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 I might have to give it a go…did you apply it in situ or remove the part? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want to touch 10 year old roof plastics to get that part off. Edited July 28, 2021 by iborguk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bit iborg did, on my 986 that bit isn't flocked at all, it's just rubber. Edited July 28, 2021 by SuperPaulie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
