This week we worked on getting the door to seal properly as part of our process of getting Maude waterproofed. Last week I had scraped off the old seals. Now we had to deal with the adhesive that remained and was REALLY stuck on there.
In the above pictures, you can see all of the material that couldn't just be scraped off. We used acetone and scrub brushes to remove it all. It took 2.5 hours to get the main door, inner door and door frame cleaned. Our arms are TIRED from all of that scrubbing!
But look! It cleaned up so nicely!
Once everything was cleaned up, it didn't take long to apply the new seals.
And here you can see the new seals doing their jobs! It looks like there are two doors, because there are! I think this is my favorite feature of Maude's! She has a main door, but then a door-within-a-door that is a screen! It's super cute! And now, neither of them leak! Yay!
This beautiful little fellow joined us for a bit of our work - so shiny!
Until next week, stay healthy! <3 Becca
