Nanglebadger Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 Folks,i have a quick one on behalf of a friend.Mate of mine owns a drag spec scoobie, he runs straightliners here in NI.He would LOVE to fit a perspex rear window but can find no where to do it, apparently its very difficult to get perspex to bond to metal and they end up leaking!does anyone know of any way to mount a perspex screen to a car in such a way as to make it water proof????Cheers folks,Phil.

james@cjperformance Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 silicone and a rivet gun unless he has them made to measure which would enable him to use the factory rubber.I would opt for polypropelene over perspex tbh as perspex shatters in the event of an accident Quote
Jamie1st Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 I know for most cars you buy the perspex windows cut out/shaped to match the car. I should imagine if you can get hold of a company that has the correct ones for the scoob they should advise the best way for fitting.http://www.plastics4performance.com/ give these a try, they also ship world wide.Jamie.

LeeG Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 the windows in my v are polypropelene and are sikaflex'd in not had one problem and they have been fitted since feb Quote
Nanglebadger Posted October 25, 2011 Author Posted October 25, 2011 see, this is why i ask the UKSC massive, for u have zee answers!cheers lads!Phil. Quote
Ryan-11 Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 just make sure u key the perspex before u put the sealer on, gives the sealer something to grip, sikaflex is what i would use, that stuff sticks anything lol Quote
Nanglebadger Posted October 26, 2011 Author Posted October 26, 2011 uber cheers i will pass this all along today.thanks gents.Phil. Quote
