can i use dicor non sag sealant instead of super glue?

[@SteeleRubberProducts]

Hey there. Good question, we would not recommend using that with your weatherstripping. That product is more of a sealant you put over cracks or seams. We recommend using the 3M weatherstripping adhesive, it is superior to any other adhesive and works great with rubber seals. Hope this helps, thank you for watching!

Question, how long will this job take?

[@SteeleRubberProducts]

Hey Joe, the time will vary depending on your speed, number of people working, if you're taking off old rubber as well as if you've ever replaced one before you may move a little quicker. No matter what, I would set aside a day to dedicate to this and would plan on the install taking a few hours. After you get the new slide out installed, remember to not close your slide out for 24 hours to let the adhesive cure that way your rubber will stay in place. Hopefully this helps! Thanks for watching!
