Door waterproofing - Grant - 05-12-2013 So with my stripped interior I have removed the door cards and the grey foam behind them. Bad idea. Turns out the grey foam is to stop water splashing off the window regulator and into the car when it rains. I am reluctant to spend £30 a side for two sheets of foam from pug. What can people reccomend? I don't think I can bang a sheet of plastic or carbon over as I still have the window regulators and they sit proud. All suggestions welcome.

Lol RE: Door waterproofing - WiNgNuTz - 05-12-2013 You clearly didn't use enough then grant. RE: Door waterproofing - Piggy - 05-12-2013 I be open to know too...currently used some plastic sheeting and sealant RE: Door waterproofing - Connor - 05-12-2013 Youre using the wrong/shit stuff then RE: Door waterproofing - Daniel306 - 05-12-2013 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/self-adhesive-closed-cell-foam-sheets-soundproofing-2m-x-1m-x3mm-/291031872166?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item43c2d9f2a6 Thats what i used RE: Door waterproofing - Grant - 05-12-2013 You sir, are a f*cking hero! Repped! (I assume it works well?) RE: Door waterproofing - Daniel306 - 05-12-2013 Works perfect, just dont do what i did and buy two rolls... you wont even use half of one on one car RE: Door waterproofing - darrenjlobb - 05-12-2013 I often replace this stuff in cars with this problem...my pikey fix...go to a scrapyard, and remove the stuff from other cars (all cars have it) and just cut it up / re use in the 306, as the 306 has tiny bits anyway...just use sealant glue around the outside, and its good as new RE: Door waterproofing - HDIkyle - 07-12-2013 Is that what its for? I have removed it in all my cars but never noticed water in there or the doorcards RE: Door waterproofing - Ben - 07-12-2013 That's annoying! Never thought about that when I sound-proofed so my cloud 9 will be sodden! RE: Door waterproofing - Grant - 07-12-2013 Likely mate. Haha. I have to drive everywhere with the heaters on the footwell full blast and the windows open in a vain attempt to dry the car RE: Door waterproofing - DeeTurbo - 07-12-2013 I seemed to get a bit of water now and again on the bottom seal on the drivers side after washing the car. Today I replaced the weather curtin with bitumen backed roofing membrane. Ben, what thickness cloud9 did you use? I think the stuff I got is around 12mm and I can't get the door cards to go on. |
