Rubber adhesive in Canada/Toronto?

bigjilm · 04-17-2010, 08:21 PM

Hey guys,
I have an older BMW that has some internal trim coming loose. I need to find some adhesive that will bond rubber to rubber, but that seems to be pretty rare.
Has anyone seen anything along the way? I've tried the 3M trim adhesive, but the first hot day melted it.

Thanks,
Jim

I tried all of the standard spots, including HD. My local autoparts store sold me the 3m trim adhesive, but it's not holding up.

May be try something like Shoe Goo from Cdn tire. That thing is like rubber itself.

mounting 3M adhesive tape will do the trick
I got it @ HD. worked great.... but since your HD dont have it....
the thing was strong....

Adhesive tape? Hmmm.... never looked at any tape. Thanks for that scoop.

I actually tried Shoo Goo originally, but the car heated up in the sun and the stuff let go. The 3M trim adhesive did exactly the same thing.

Gasket adhesive at CT. It's designed to bond rubber gaskets together as well as rubber gaskets to other materials. It's really strong glue for rubber really.

Tape and gasket adhesive - I'll try the first one I find, and seek out the other if it doesn't work.

Thanks for the help!
