dazzyvr6 0 Posted January 21, 2004 just bought myself some reiger venus side skirts,and im just wondering if anyones got any tips on fitting them,as the instuctions are in german as usuall :? :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bally 0 Posted January 21, 2004 Tigerseal is a good one, they use it to bond arch's & bodykits in workshops... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubbprince 0 Posted January 21, 2004 i'm not sure if its the same stuff bally is on about...but the paint place i normally go to has stuff called 'silkaflex'....or black silicone mastic. Its used to bond windscreens and i used to to put the sideskirts on my old polo. VERY STRONG!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED...ONLY USE A BIT HERE AND THERE...JUST A FEW DOTS WILL HOLD THEM ON. obviously use masking tape to hold them in place, and it takes around 12hrs to set. Its a rubbery sorta glue...so when the chassis flex's, your skirts should remain fine. the place i go to is: Autopaint international. They've got branches everywhere....just take a look in yellow pages and find spray paint dealers for cars...they do trade and public deals. Should cost around £6-8 per gun. Sanj.

Mike Edwards 0 Posted January 26, 2004 Have you considered nailing them on??? :twisted: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted January 26, 2004 Have you considered nailing them on??? :twisted: rofl as for Jack, same problem with mine today, although the mechanic always carries two bits of wood in his van, drive onto them, then slip the jack under, far quicker than jacking up with the VW jack, then using the trolley.
