Rear window seal
Posted: Tue Jul 20, 2021 9:09 am
The old, now unusable seal fitted in the 90s came as a made up unit with mitred ad bonded bottom corners. the new seal comes as a cut length.
My first attempt to mitre corners has proved to be much more difficult than expected. using the old seal as a template enables me to get the angles about right but what ever method I use to cut the seal results in significant distortion resulting in very poor mitres that do not meet sufficiently accurately to enable satisfactory bonding
I’ve ordered my second length of seal and want to get it right this time.
Does anyone have any tried and tested method of cutting accurate mitres or is it possible to fit the seal as one length?
