Hood Insulation

[farmhawk]

My hood insulation keeps coming loose, I used a quality spray adhesive but I am thinking the heat gets to it. What is the best product, short of riveting it to the hood should I use?

3M super trim adhesive part #08090 is what you should be using.It is heat resistant and works well where immediate high strength is required. It is what I have had good results with on hood pads.

Exactly what I used to glue on a new hood insulator. Just be careful that you get the SUPER version. They also gave an aerosol that is called Trim Adhesive. It I s NOT the same as Super Trim Adhesive. Super is considerably more expensive (but worth it).

I am personally fond of Hi-Tack from Lowes. Have used it for years with no "sticking" issues. Just be sure your item is where you want it before you press it together!

There is a gasket adhesive from Catipillar commonly called "cat green" that is unbeatable. I used it on the hood insulation that has stood the test of time for over 15 years not. It comes in a can with a brush in the cap.
