In Response To: Re: Hatch Gaskets (Larry C.)

I used the same material: a car whether strip.

can you please look in my web page & tell me if you see something wrong.

my covers don't press strong enough on the weather strip, so there are cracks left that leak.

the bungie pulls very strong, but the surface of the neoprene is large enough to make the pressure too little.

any help appreciated

: Michael, I used automotive weather strip foam. This stuff was high quality
: and expensive but it does not leak.

: Works for me,
