Homer Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Had a search but couldn't fine any results for this (though I know they exist). What is the current preferred agent for bonding stock spats to the rear quarters these days? I remember something called Tiger bond or similar but not sure what's best for stock over less well fitting copies... TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I'd use the normal screw mounting holes in conjunction with some good double sided tape. Ricky's were on like that and didn't fall off. Baldy would be the man to ask which tape to use, as I think he fitted them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just chcked the spats again and you're right, there's only what looks like double sided tape on there. Any ideas what this stuff is called after market? (gah, just re-read, I'll PM Mr Baldy) Skippy, that's some class work there, just the sort of thing I'd normally do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I think the tape is 'trim tape', thin black foam type tape with green gloss backing you peel off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannoSupra Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 (edited) My spats were held in with windscreen bond. As was my Trial rear (bit of a pain to get off without damage) i need to get my skirts off, i dont think they'll come off without damaging This should hold for you if you use double sided tape http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Black-Double-Sided-Foam-Tape-All-Sizes-Automotive-Grade-Number-Plates-Car-Trims-/180727731135 Edited August 10, 2013 by DannoSupra (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Sikaflex 221.. its a polyurethane windscreen adhesive, used it to bond plenty of kit parts, bit of a sod to remove though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, that's the one I was trying to remember. Thanks Ricky, think I'll try the tape first and see how it works out, if it fails then it's sikaflex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
