(/showthread.php?tid=4058) |
Inner back window felt? - Kingspagetti - 02-25-22 I have a 70 coronet 500. Iâm trying to refinish the inner back metal panelsâ¦surface rust from sun fade. The window felts are stapled to the metal. Should I take them off? How would I refasten them? Any opinions, tips, tricks or hints would be appreciated. Inner back window felt? - 67440Dodge - 03-12-22 Sorry no one has answered you. If the felts are in good shape I'd just paint over the rusty staples with a satin black paint to cover the rust. I believe the staples should come with the new felts if you buy them (mine did but that was almost 20yrs ago). If not, R/T Specialties in PA should have them, or any of the other Mopar vendors like Herb's in Delaware or Van's in Wisconsin I believe. Inner back window felt? - Kingspagetti - 03-12-22 Thank you for your response. The felts are in really good shape. The rust is on the metal panel. I could take the Felts off and repair and repaint the metal, but I donât know how I would resecure the them. I even tried to locate some aftermarket pieces to see if they had a new/different way to secure them, but couldnât find any. I canât imagine being able to re-staple them through the relatively thick metal.
