I am going to be replacing the weather stripping on my doors.What I am wondering is do they make a glue remover so I can clean off the old glue before I put on the new weather stripping.

Rick,

3M also makes an adhesive remover which comes in an aerosol can. Most auto parts or auto body suppliers should carry it.

Well with work in the  I have time on my hands,however mort inportant things have been coming up.So I been doing what I can do in my driveway.My computer desk looks like a corvette parts store  right now I do what I can when I can,I will be towing the car up to the base auto hobby shop next Friday.Hopefully I can get the major repairs done then.Oh Dan you can call me Rich or Rick but don't call me .Thanks guys for the info.

Hey Rick,

I recall reading here that you have to properly clean off the new weather strips before installation. Some type of stuff comes on them that won't allow them to stick to the new adhesive.

Rick, be careful with the adhesive remover. That stuff can dMage upholstry and finishes. I would spray it on a rag away from the car and try a test spot to see how it's working first...

I also used the 3M remover; it works good, but the key is elbow grease!

The remover I have is not spray; I bought a 1 Qt metal can thingy.  Poured it on a rag and scrubbed... and scrubbed and then...  scrubbed!  Actually; the doors are the easy part.  The T-Tops grooves are a pain.

Before installing the new weather strip; I cleaned the weather strip and the surface with alcohol.

As for the adhesive, I also used the 3M brand.  Really happy with the results!
