Expert Answers about Chevrolet Lubricants Sealants Adhesives


  • Removal of Old Adhesive and Dicor
  • When installing new Rubber Wiper Seal and Bulb for RV Slide Out, # SR48FR, remove the old adhesive using a putty knife or other tool with an edge to scrap.

Once your parts are replaced, if you reapply new sealant be certain to use the correct product. Self-leveling sealant is designed to level out as you...

  • Adhesive Recommendation for Securing 1 inch Wide Tonneau Cover Velcro

  • Replacement Floor Options For An Outdoor Utility Trailer
  • Typically utility trailers will just use treated lumber for the flooring. We really only offer vinyl flooring like the RV Vinyl Flooring # TS77FR you were looking at, which is intended for use in an enclosed trailer. You could still use it on your utility trailer but would need a wooden subfloor for it to stick to. You'll also need the correct adhesive to properly mount the flooring to the trailer; # TS76FR for wood only subfloor and # TS86FR for wood, metal or concrete subfloor. Other...

  • Solution for Leaking Roof on 2005 Pop-Up Camper
  • That is not a fun thing to walk into when opening up your camper for the season!

You can then add the LaSalle Bristol Roof Installation Kit # 3442703414KIT that includes...

  • Options for Carrying a Cargo Bag with a 2009 BMW X3
  • You definitely don't want to be putting extra weight on your sunroof or your rear spoiler. The best way to avoid that is to either use a roof rack or hitch mounted carrier. For a roof rack we have the Thule Winbar Evo Bars # TH711400 for Silver or # TH711420 for Black with the Foot Pack # TH710401. A more cost-effective option is the Malone Roof Rack # MPG201 but it doesn't have an aerodynamic design so it will be a little more noisy and won't look as sleek. You can then use a cargo basket...
