RE: [Chrysler300] Weatherstrip mastic

[<john_nowosacki@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

You might add that the yellow seemed to be applied by sight-impaired individuals, as there is a bunch of it still visible on the cars when they left the factory.

A nice restoration job usually removes the unsightly over brushing, but I guess a stickler for 'originality' would re-apply the yellow in the same sloppy fashion.  ;-)

Hi Doug and All:
Doug, you need to use a weatherstrip adheasive, not mastic. I use Permatex 
Super Weatherstrip Adhesive. It comes in the black or yellow. In the plant' 
originally, the yellow was applied to the body of the car by flowbrush and 
the black to the weatherstrip by rollercoater (at least in my experience). 
The wet coated weatherstrip was then positioned on the car where the yellow 
material had dried, reactivating it and forming a bond. When applied properly, 
this stuff works pretty well. Hope this helps.
300ly, Gil

Hi Group, Can anyone recommend the proper mastic for reapplying loose 
weatherstriping and/or using on new material. Thanks in advance, Doug Warrener
