Can i use this to seal a gap in the corner, bottom of my garage door without it sticking to and ripping the bottom gasket? Thanks.

I am not certain that I understand what you want to do. Great Stuff is a foam and does not have any real structural strength. It is just a foam like stuffing marshmallow in the gap. It will fill a gap but if you hit it with anything it will just tear and break off parts of the foam.

The strip is just over an inch and a half eith the sticky portion covering the top 3/4 of an inch. So as long as the gap in your door is less than a 1.25 inches you should have enough clearance for the sticky portion to actually stick. Measure before applying! Once you stick, you can't go back!

After I installed this item, I realized I have a similar issue in the middle of my garage door since the floor seems to be lower there. So there isn't a good seal there, I can see daylight under the door. I'm going to try fixing it by putting" Sensible Solutions 3016 Storm Shield 16-Foot Garage Door Threshold" on the floor. I have no idea if this is going to work, but it's the only solution I've come up with. Since this is wedge shaped, I can have it thicker under the door where it's needed. Nothing saying it has to be absolutely straight on the garage floor............

I have used this on external rubber seals on cars, and it works well as a moisture barrier. I assume it will work just as well for home window seals.

I used it on the hydraulics for a wood splitter and it stopped the leak. A lot less effort then replacing the gaskets. I have not done a lot of splitting this summer will give it a true test this fall.

I am not sure, Jose. I bought this to fill small holes in a pair of flats. Honestly, it didn't work nearly as well as I thought, but I think this product might be better suited to fixing a rip, as opposed to filling a hole. I'd say try it (at 5.10, you can't really go wrong), but if it doesn't work, then Liquid Leather might be your best bet instead: http://www.amazon.com/Liquid-Leather-Pro-Vinyl-Repair/dp/B000PSMVTA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1425440437&sr=8-1&keywords=liquid+leather

This is a foam product which comes out wet, sticks to surfaces, and expands. You'd have a real mess on your hands if you tried to use it on a door. There are all sorts of gaskets, some of which have adhesive backing, that would work better. Talk to someone at Lowe's or Home Depot.

Hi Richard, Dan (also in Indy) here. I purchased the product last summer and used it to replace all the vinyl on my RV. I don't think you'd have much luck using this in your application on garage doors. The vinyl has no ridging that would allow it to hold to a garage door short of using screws to attach it. Its designed to be squeezed in half and inserted into a channel where it pops up seal the channel. Hope this helps.

I currently use this on tires and anything else rubber and it works great. If your gaskets are in decent shape, give this a try

From the bottom of the door to the bottom of the fins is 1/2 inch, I think you will need something a little longer to cover a 1/2 inch gap. You want the fins to "more" than just make it to create a seal.

I used it for some electrical repair, etc. where it is wrapped and then adheres to its other layers. I'm not sure how it would work if used as just one strip adhering to the two surfaces. I would suggest a good silicone kitchen sealer from a squeeze tube. Though.... It is water proof and does adhere to the original surface well.

I used it underwater on the tile grout and sealed it without a problem. It was quite quick to adhere. It most likely would work.

I don't see any reason why not. It would definitely work around the door which is where you lose the most smoke/air/moisture but I'm not sure if the lip around the top and bottom sections are wide enough for the gasket fit.

If your garage door uses tracks on side for the door to roll up on; this bottom door seal should work fine. Whether it rolls up or swings up; final contact on the bottom face is minimal fricton.

Yes it would work. I've used it to seal a part on a radiator with no problems. I also think the package says its good for up to 500 degrees.

A plastic welding epoxy putty would work better if it is a crack in the plastic.You would want to roughen up and then clean the area first before you seal it over.

If the air is leaking around the duct tape, I'd run another strip of duct tape to make the seal wider. The transparent tape is useful for the opening of doors on 3 sides or windows; useful because it cannot be seen. If that is what you seek, then it would work. Air should not be able to get through either!
