Can't figure out where to put this. Automotive possibly? I'm replacing the vapor barrier on a door of a car after a door speaker install.
So, it's a flexible plastic sheet to painted metal seal. Nearly all of the adhesive is on the plastic. Wish I still had access to LN2.
The area around the plastic was marked with a stadtler. The plastic vapor barrier was removed. The adhesive is off of the metal side of the door.
I removed a very small portion of adhesive, about 8" x 1/4" from a small piece of plastic and re-attached it.
Presently, putting the adhesive on the door using the vapor barrier as a template. The adhesive comes in tape form 50' x 14" x1/8" with a wax like paper backing. You apply one side and then remove the backing and apply the other.
Tools used so far:
Knife
Single edge razer blade
vinyl gloves
Nitrile gloves
Scissors
Stadtler - equivalent to Sharpie
Kapton tape
paper towels
Giant and intermediate sized cotton swabs
Solvents used so far:
Naptha
Hexane
Ligher fluid
Goo gone
Methanol - not for Butyl rubber
So, any other suggestions? I had a lot of trouble obtaining Naptha.
