Re: WOW ... stop the rust while you can ...
I was actually talking about the “solid” part of the stripping that fits in the channel on the door, not the hollow part that butts up to the door sill on the main car frame. I squeezed (fairly hard) and I saw water appearing through the surface of the stripping! I tried it at multiple points on the strip. The stripping is definitely holding water internally. It also smelt musty which implies it had been in the strip for sometime. Has anyone else tried this?
So how is the water getting inside the stripping?
I would rather try and get a fix for the source of the problem rather than just paint with POR. Has anyone talked to Chrysler.
I also found it easier to re-install the strip if you lie on the floor and get bottom edge installed first.and roll the strip in place.
