So I'm getting my gilbarco pump ready to sit outside and bare the elements. The factory rubber seals around my doors have rotted off long ago. Wondering if anyone has found a peel and stick seal that would work for keeping the pests out? Maybe like the stuff they use for automotive that comes in a roll? Thanks for any advice. - Brian

go to any common hardware store (ace hardware, etc) and they will have door/window peel foam in various thickness & sizes, as well as both peel and stick and non stick

auveco.com sells mostly body clips, nuts & bolts, etc. but they do have some weatherstrip/seals that might work for what you want

I would think the foam would absorb water and fall apart rather quickly unless maybe it was a closed cell foam? I will have to check hardware store and the above mentioned website. Thanks

life jackets, docks, noodle floats for the pool... all water resistant & foam.

if you go to the hardware store, there will be at least 10 different kinds and variations of window & door foam stripping.

There are a million ways to do something wrong or you can do it right the first time.

Why not buy the correct reproduction door rubber? It is readily available from all the vendors. You'll need R-107 door rubber and will need 12 feet per door for you Gilbarco 96. At $2.00 per foot that's $48.00 for both doors. Well worth it to do it right the first time and have it looking like it should.
