plastic sa door

[Baron]

para san po ito at san pwede magpalagay??

[OTEP]

Please be more specific.

If you mean the plastic underneath the interior door panel, it's a moisture barrier.

You can buy plastic in rolls from bookstores and install them yourself.

what's the adhesive they use for the barrier?

[OTEP]

I don't know what you call that adhesive. I just call it 'gummy'.

But you don't really have to use that. For restorations, we just use whatever we can get our hands on. Even those 'liquid gasket' originally intended for engine rebuilding. As long as it will bond to the plastic and to the metal.

alketran saw yun, hirap nga tanggalin..kelangan pa ng kerosene to remove completely...pano na stapler yung plastic sa metal???

[yebo]

you can use dow corning "silastic" silicone sealant for that. 100 pesos isang tube but the gun costs around 400. if you don't want to buy a sealant gun then you can just push the bottom with a piece of wood. or buy the sealant in the "toothpaste" tube, mas mahal lang nga.

Bakit yun ang gamit nila? nde ba pwede ibang sticky compound? hehe hirap tangalin. badtrip.

[OTEP]

Yun ang ginagamit because it can be reattached afterwards and is temperature stable. Perfect for other markets na malaki ang temperature changes (e.g. Middle East).

For several reasons:
1. it's very sticky
2. it's cheap
3. it's water-resistant (yes it is)
4. easily accessable and available.
