still looking for ideas on a protection idea from you folks

[Tim P.]

was wondering if there is a product out there on the market designed for this type of application.

What do you want to protect?

[Tim P.]

Im installing new door panels for my 72 theses are the orginals so moisture is my enemy with theses wanting to know whats best for this protection.

I'd just cut my own. You can buy heavy-mil plastic in rolls in the tarp section at the local hardware store. Granted, you're going to have about 1000 times more than what you'd need, but a large roll of it is about $12-$15. Then just duct-tape it on, since it doesn't have to be pretty, being covered up with the door panels anyway.

I thought of that but I was hoping to fine something close to the original type it seemed to be more rigid like a black plastic coated paper.

Myabe you can make your own?

Could try using a grocery bag and putting some tar or perhaps a spray on undercoating and see if that works.

What about black roofing paper?

What about black roofing paper?

That might smell, especially on a hot day with the windows up.

Good point didn't think of that, just that it was water resistant.

Maybe you could try an auto upholstery shop. They might have some tricks up their sleeve.

Dummy me My wife work with the thermoforming that makes thoses blister packs you know the ones that get you cussing to open up well i got some of that heavy stuff so I'll pattering it for my truck door tough stuff ridged yet flexable and clear, bty felt paper is not good once it gets wet its done or expose to uv it deterioates fast, its design was for a air barrier between shingles and the decking to keep the shingles cool other wise they will eventally stick to the decking materials thus shorting it's life span.


too much info???
