The bike rack on my wife's car has its jaws lined with strips of
rubber -- pretty much inner tube rubber. The cement holding them in

cement, but that didn't hold well. Does anyone know what's a good way
to get rubber to stick to painted steel?


Tubular cement if you have it handy, otherwise 3M FasTack auto body trim
adhesive is perfect for that application.


That's what a frame painter thought for adhering my head badge. It fell
off and was lost forever.


Sad story, but the trim on my MGB went on, after I
resprayed, with 3M adhesive in 1976 and was fine when I
wrecked the car in 1985.
