Re: [AMC-list] Weatherstrips and gaskets

I don't think that overall you need to use much weatherstrip adhesive, but 
there may be a few contact points that glue would work well in. Just be 
extra sure the weatherstrips are properly tucked in. A friend had some 
terrible wind noise and leakage on his 69 Javelin after installing new 
weatherstrips and upon close inspection I found that the strips weren't 
properly tucked into the channels. Once tucked, the windows fit like new and 
solved most of the issues!

As mentioned, use a BLACK weatherstrip adhesive. 3M makes both the yellow 
"gorilla snot" variety AND a black variety that works equally as well. There 
may be other weatherstrip adhesives out there, but I wouldn't waste my money 
on anything other than 3M.

Your mileage may vary!  :)
