Re: [MBZ] hood pads (was FCP euro)

Not this stuff. They don’t offer it. Search for 3M 8090. -D > On Feb 17, 2018, at 10:47 PM, Andrew Strasfogel via Mercedes > wrote: > > The 3M spray adhesives are sold cheaper at Home Depot. > > On Sat, Feb 17, 2018 at 2:38 PM, Curley McLain via Mercedes < >

I'd rather do it with the hood vertical.On a 107 or 110 where the hood does not go vertical, then yes, taking it off would help. OK Don via Mercedes February 17, 2018 at 12:20 PM After having done one with the hood in place, I did the next two after pulling

Re: [MBZ] hood pads (was FCP euro)

After having done one with the hood in place, I did the next two after pulling the hood off - it's much easier to work on and to keep spray off everything else. I found that I much prefer to scrape old adhesive off with the hood up-side-down than to work overhead. It takes two to comfortably and

Re: [MBZ] hood pads (was FCP euro)

I pretty much concur with Peter, but I like to spray/apply adhesive to the parts separately. I mask off the hood and cover the engine compartment with an old sheet. I have a roll of butcher’s paper I put down on the floor where I place the pad and spray it. Once everything sets up (five

It's been a while since we had this topic discussed, so here's the drill: 3M 8090 only, don't use anything else -- for two reasons: It stays up, and you can get it back off. Liquid nails will work, but is pure hell to clean off enough to get a new pad to stay up, I had this on the old 300D.

Just bought two cans of this: https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/3m-super-trim-adhesive-yellow-19-oz-08090/7160016-P?searchTerm=trim+adhesive Only stuff I’ll use. As with anything using adhesives or paint, proper surface prep is critical to it performing properly. As my hood has been scraped

What adhesive do you use for the hood pads? I tried 3m high tack spray, but it seems to come loose over the high temp areas of the engine bay. On Feb 15, 2018 8:15 AM, "Dan--- via Mercedes" wrote: Ordered a hood pad and some other bits and bobs for the 400E from them
