The plastic compound that the panels are made from doesn't accept glue well, and the panels are stressed a bit when attached to the doors so that they end up recracking.

How it works is you drop the one part clear liquid into a plastic dust and it melts instantly and is spredable or hit it with a 2nd drop and its flow's more then within one minute its hard and 10 minuts its rock hard. good luck.

It's expensive, but it works. Astrobuf So, are you really a Rocket Scientist?

However like 3m and others, they have their own special gun you need to buy and it's not cheap. 68 Road Runner, 69 Belvedere, 71 Challenger Vert 340 barracuda, 01 Ram CTD, 95 Ram, 04 Ram, 85 Daytona turbo Z 66 GTO, 06 Magnum RT AWD. 07 Ram CTD, 07 Ram
