Rubbercoat

[Dave R]

no not the kinky kind!

 

a few years ago you used to be able to buy this stuff at the shows

looked sorta underseal like but went on thick and dried very much like rubber

 

anyone know who stocks/sells it?

was lookin at donny and couldnt find any :boohoo:

[Joel]

Is this the stuff?

 

Wunderseal

[Dave R]

similar, but not the same i think

 

saw it at donny and all the samples they had on the bench didnt look as thick or as rubbery

[Guest Phil Slater]

Can't remember what it's called but DIY stores - B&Q Homebase etc. sell a roofing sealer that dries flexable and is like rubber. The advert used to show it painted on a sponge and once it had gone off you could still squeeze the sponge it was so flexable. Don't know if that helps

carlife. thats the one. ta

hopefully they are still around

if not i got a mate who is a roofer. wil see what he says

[Guest salty_monk]

You want to be careful with that if you are going on top of anything that can rust... if it gets perforated then water creeps in behind it & can't escape - perfect for rusting important bits of chassis away!!

Ask some classic car owners about underseal - you might be surprised by how much a lot of them hate the stuff...!!

[Dave R]

was only intending to put it on the grp to stop stones chippin the gel coat off from underneath

[Guest salty_monk]

Doesn't sound like a bad plan on there then... I know some have painted the underside. Let us know how it works out!!

Used on the underside and inside all GRP panels for sound deadening and stone chip protection - so far so good.

Just done my cycle wings and rear arches a few weeks ago. Bought the stuff from Newark over a year ago. Forgot I had it until I noticed a few small dents in the s/steel arches from the odd stone being thrown up from the tyres .

Sound deadening in a Robin Hood?

Barry.

[BigLee]

Not much point in that with mine then Barry.

 

Although if you soundproofed yours all round you might not be able to hear mine when I'm following you down the motorway.

 

Sounds a top idea for under the clam shell wings though. I feel another task to my list of winter jobs that I'm compiling.

 

Cheers

Vaguely remember reading in one of the mags a year or so ago that the firm had dissappeared.
