Best brand for Door seals
My door seals are only about a year old, but super-soft to the point of being flimsy, and even after having to glue them on, they still continue to come off in places....very cheaply made. I finally got PO'd last time I drove the truck (upon getting out the drivers seal fell off from the top and tried to choke me ), so I yanked the whole thing off with one massive yank and threw it into the closest dumpster. Therefore I need to replace them both, but would like to hear some opinions on some that are of good quality....at this point cost isn't an issue...I think you pretty much get what you pay for with this stuff.
TIA!

Re: Best brand for Door seals
Thanks! Do you have a website, vendor, or more information? Google search for "Precision seals", "Precision Rubber seals", etc. is only turning up home improvement type stuff.

Re: Best brand for Door seals
For door seals, use S-10 seals, or Dodge Dakota. They are press-on, no gluing, and work fantastic. Precision are the best for windshields.

Re: Best brand for Door seals
I have new seals on the doors but in the body shop they install with yellow glue and they´re loose I want to know if is there any brand or special glue.

Re: Best brand for Door seals
3M Weatherstrip Adhesive, AKA "SuperSnot" or "Gorilla Snot" [not to be confused with the Swedish wood glue] is what we used to use.

Re: Best brand for Door seals
http://www.gmcpauls.com/ I have the GMC Paul's press on seals. Took a while for them to break in, but they seal great and install was a snap.
