Glass Rubber fix under $10


Recommended Posts

Here is a cheap-o fix for leaky widows.

 

1. Clean the gasket and window contact area w/ acetone or paint thinnner. A bondo spreader works great for cleaning the crevase between the window and the gasket.

 

2. Take a tube of permatex black gasket sealant, and drill out the end tip of the tube nose cone.

 

3. Using the bondo spreader to create a gap between the gasket and glass, stick the nose cone of the permatex down in there and squeeze a bead along that line.

 

4. press the gasket back in place, and wipe off excess that squeezes out.

 

If you have the extra $ for replacement gaskets(or can even find them) this may not be the best solution for you. It worked for me
