Stuck Storage Compartment Doors

Recommended Posts

On my '14 Minnie Winnie 31H they used the cheapest foam tape they could find to use as Storage Compartment door seals and now after a couple of years it takes real force (and the occasional screwdriver helper) to open them up as the stuff sticks like crazy. Plus the tape is shrinking and "cutting corners" across the corners so they're not really sealed. I'm thinking of using AP Products 018-1894 rubber j-bulb seal as a replacement. Certainly should be more durable and shouldn't suffer the kind of shrinkage that foam does. Basic idea is to remove all the old foam and all adhesive residues, then install the new seals all around.

Any thoughts good or bad about that plan?

Thanks,

Chuck

Chuck,

Welcome to the forum.  I think you have a good plan.  Our basement door seals are still good but I use this other rubber foam seal for other things around the house.  the 3M adhesive cleaner works great to remove the old glue and residue.

True Value stocks the seal.
