Replacing my hood liner AGAIN ( last one began to tear cheap quality)
What type if any glue should I use to hold the pad onto the hood along with the metal clips?

 

I would suggest contact glue-be sure to wait as they say before you place it
Good luck!

I just replaced the hood pad on my '67 Delta. In addition to the plastic clips, I used 3M weatherstrip adhesive to hold it on in the various places where the previous one was glued. Stuff works great.

 

Good choice I forgot about that stuff!

 

I have used 3M #90 spray adhesive and it worked fine and was easy to apply, make sure its #90 and not the more common #77 which doesn't have as much tac.....Tedd

 

I've also used the 3M spray before. It works great. I didn't know there were two kinds though. I may have used the 77 instead of the 90 (I don't recall). Whatever I used worked like a champ.

 

and heat resistance... 8090 is made for vinyl tops and headliners, so it will be the best to use on the hood pad

 

I like idea of a spray...just curious is the glue needed, can I get away with just the metal clips ?? I am thinking of having large polished clips made for me. I just picked up a polished metal cover for my ride-on mower air filter holder. I asked the manager if he could make mirror finished metal clamps for the hood liner and he is going to make them for me. They are about the size of hockey pucks so they should hold the liner on nice.

 

I did not use glue on mine - just the round plastic retainers from the HELP section at the parts store.

 

Mine does not have or need glue either

 

Mine has no clips or attachments, gotta be glued...Tedd

 

For 1972 the Body Assembly Manual states:

"Apply 9985062 Cement in area shown to hood surface and insulator....."

(see attachment)

How does one decode the part number? Not that I actually expect to be able to find that glue, but more for bolts and screws.....
