After five months in the body shop (I don't have a garage and no way to do body & paint work), I just got my '58 TR3A back with the body in showroom condition repainted in BRG. However, the newly installed rubber seal between the bottom of the windshield and the body of the car isn't sealing. It puckers up about 1/8" above the body in several places. The shop suggested that it will lie straight against the body after it has spent some time in the sun warming up. I question if this is correct as I tried speeding up the process with a heat gun with little success. Is there supposed to be some sealant to firmly attach the rubber seal to the body or is it supposed to be just a friction fit? Any info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
