Alex Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I’m looking for suggestions for the best thing to use for door hinge and striker gaskets.I’m thinking a bit thicker than a cereal box? Any thoughts as to how thick it should be?Thank you in advanceAlex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Two thicknesses of cereal box......... Or more, depending on your door fit needs. Our Spit had more I think.Alternatively, the backing card from note pads or similar?Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted October 10, 2017 Author Share Posted October 10, 2017 I like the idea of backings from notepads,thanks Nick!Fitted the drivers door last night to recheck for fit before final paint,today I fit the passenger side.Drivers side made me so pleased with all my efforts.....passenger side made me swear lots 😀Almost sorted now but chipped a few areas of paint, need to ‘correct’ the screen frame as it’s touching slightly Obviously no strikers etc fitted yet...... hopefully that will be ok.Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

efp Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Maybe thinner than you are looking for, but I’ve used old manilla file folders before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
