Re: 1/4 window jamb seal

[musclecarguy1@xxxxxxxxx]

If you really think it will be a pain in the butt putting that strip in but you believe it will stay in the track without using the glue, you can also put just a small amount of dishwashing soap (liquid) in the channel and then push the felt into place. The soap helps the felt to slide a bit easier if you need to line it up or adjust it much. Once the soap dries up you will never know it was there. Just don't saturate your felt, use only enough to get the felt strip to slide or move a bit in the channel. If the channel isn't bent or twisted, and is tight, a new felt strip should stay in by itself if you have actually put it in right. Make sure it is seated all the way down in the channel. Watch to make sure your edges are where they should be too. Hope this helps.
