Subject: Re: windshield trim--How to make your own missing piece(if done
right)
On vin#1136 that piece flew off as I was driving(drivers side) what I did
was make my own out of wastebased caulk,go to your local Home Depot,pick up
a tube or two of their WATERBASED BLACK CAULK(Red Devil Lifetime Brand
ADHESIVE SEALANT Siliconized Acrylic 10.1 Fl.oz. tubes),then apply it to
where the missing pieces were(the corner areas)and make it level with the
remaining pieces,then using a damp sponge or clean damp rag shape it to
the
orignal part,with the right curves,until you get satifactory results,(if
you
make a mistake it is water based so that it is easy to clean up/redo,let it
dry for at least 24 hours,and it will Look, as good if not better than the
orignal,as it is blended into existing part.This stuff is also good for any
leaks in your Bricklin and it is under $2.00 a tube compare that with that
oily Goo that they want xxx dollars and makes a mess to install.Hope this
helps.
P.S. I also installed a windshield with that stuff 4 YEARS ago,and it is
still working perfect (no leaks/problems).
