Sticking Rubber Trim To GRP?

Hi all,

What have others used to stick rubber trim to GRP? I'm using some of the thin rubber type U trim, without the metal insert so it won't clip on on its own.

Cheers

Sikaflex works well, but use masking tape to stop you getting it on areas you dont want it. Its a bugger to get it off where you didnt want it.





I'm sure I've got one, just don't know where I've put it

We used rubber solution glue as in a puncture repair outfit to stick it to aluminium. Let it tack off before you apply the two surfaces together





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

If its only for SVA (temporary) then maybe silicone will do it? It can be picked off afterwords with you fingers

evo stick works to hold stuff on long enough for sva and can be picked off afterwards.

Well I tried some Evostick today, did the trick nicely. Has the added bonus of peeling off again if you get it somewhere you didn't want it

Cheers all,
