redheadmarshal 10 Posted March 17, 2019 Hi-quick question for those who have already fitted the new foam. After removing the old pieces, did you remove absolutely all the residue of the adhesive before fitting the new pieces? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) What ever you do , do not scratch the underside of the paintwork as this could lead to moisture in the engine bay causing rust on any metal work that has had the paint removed. I would recommend using steam from a wall paper remover, works a treat and put a sheet over your engine bay to protect it from falling debris. I origianly got the VW heritge insulation what a load of garbage and the glue was awful/imappropriate, ended up cutting my loses and getting the OE stuff but the glue VW heritage sent out left a disgusting mess behind, actually told them to remove it off there site it was that bad but they are still selling it for some reason .

Dr_G60 0 Posted March 17, 2019 I removed everything, but this is really a boaring work. You can remove almost everything except the glue manual, put a towel on the engine. For removing the glue I used a glue remover which is sold in Germany by OBI, not sure if you get it in the UK. Regards Gunther Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) I wouldnt bother using any glue remover personally as the chemicals could be abrasive to the paint laquer in the long run, just get off what you can with steam and a plastic scraper, this removed all my original insulation and adhesive before the VW Heritge special glue :bonk: , this is one of thoe jobs that the more you do can be negative.

Sprinter53 11 Posted March 17, 2019 The surface must be absolutely clean otherwise the mats will loosen again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) Probably worth getting some alcoholic wipes to then as preperation. Had mine spotless with the steamer but there was no way I could get the VW hertiage glue off after I saw how awful the insulation looked from them as it was more like a hard super glue, trim glue should be strechy, really annoyed to be honest and there still selling it for some other poor sod . Thankfully tuough the new insulation I got has adhered really well , been on for four months now with no issues and if I do I have some heat trim adhesive spray.

Dr_G60 0 Posted March 17, 2019 @Keyo, I have removed the glue from 3 bonnets with that stuff now, it doesn't harm the paint. Regards Gunther Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted March 17, 2019 (edited) Glad to hear doctor G, they might have that glue remover available over here but might be branded differently for obvious reasons ha. Edited March 17, 2019 by Keyo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twinbeltg60 2 Posted March 24, 2019 Hi, I bought the damping pads from Christian, removed the Old residue with "Goo Gone", you can get it on eBay or Amazon or local places...takes a bit of effort but does not damage the paint at all....I sprayed it on liberally, wait 30 mins or so, helps the slap a bit of cling film over the applied area so it doesn't dry out, then scrape off with an old plastic credit card, need to re-do some places, but it will come off cleanly, remember to over up the engine bay with an od sheet or something as the drippings will go everywhere.

Sprinter53 11 Posted April 29, 2019 Unfortunately, the manufacturer of the material does not exist anymore. Therefore, there will be no foam in the near future. I am working on a solution. For me it is important to know how many Corrado drivers are still interested in the foam. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sprinter53 11 Posted June 3, 2019 I found a solution. They will be in stock again within the next 4 weeks. mfg chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
