need help with my mesh
Thursday, July 06, 2006 11:02 AM
i just got a skirt kit on my car and i need to put the mesh(grill) in......

there's not enough space for a screw so i need to glue it in but i gotta make sure that the glue is strong.

the front especially cause i hafta put my plate on the front mesh. the kit is plastic and obviously the mesh is metal.

anybody have any suggestions on how to glue it in.
thanx

epoxy or something like gorilla glue would work. id personally use a 2 part epoxy

I used this stuff called Liquid Nail that I got at a hardware store back in the day when I put mesh on my factory Sunfire bumper. No screws, clamps, nothing just Liquid Nail. Worked like a champ.

hot glue? There's some clear silicone/caulk at my work I use; that stuff is strong smells strong too. I think it's lethal

I picked up a tube of silicone at Wal-Mart that specified working on metal and ABS plastics. Had the mesh on for almost a year with no problems.

i talked to a mechanic and he said stick it on with epoxy and finish it off with silicone after the epoxy.......it'll make sure nothing comes out or gets waethered on.........
but the maine thing he said is be patient.......it takes time....
