Running board rubbers
#16
I tried many different ways of sticking the reproduction rubbers to my running boards as mentioned earlier in this thread. Chafing the back of the rubbers first, trying to thin them where they bend round the outer lip and any number of different adhesives, sadly, all to no avail. In the end, I gave up and used some ribbed rubber sheet on the horizontal surface and outer lip, retaining the reproduction part with the crest for the vertical. This looks a lot like the photos from Old Dave. Others have had success I know but it eluded me.

One thing I did learn in the process is that you can prime surfaces for evostik by pre treating them with a mixture of evostik and its solvent first giving a better adherence. Although that didn’t solve my problem it was a good thing to learn.
