Tailgate Gap Cover Solution

Has anyone found a solution to keep dust out of your camper where the tailgate opens and closes?

I’ve tried the rubber seals but it didn’t stay on forever.

Thank you!

 

I use a rok blok kit on mine but you have to use the paint pen that comes with it. This will etch the bed material so the tape sticks on. Did yours not come with a pen?

 

To add above, I would also add 3m tape primer 94 to the surface. Comes in a mini quart paint can and brush it on.

I haven’t done this yet but I bought the 94 for this project specifically.

 

Is it still on? I wonder why mine didn’t stick. Maybe I didn’t clean thoroughly or the adhesive dried out..

 

ya mine is still going strong and i put it on in January problems so far.

 

Could you link me? Thank you!

 

It’s gotta be cleaned, prepped, and when applied it needs pressure to make it adhere. I smacked it with a rubber mallet. I also left the gate done for 24 hours to cure. I’ve done it twice, first one I had to cut off after changing tailgate panels.

 

Does your shell have a positive pressure vent? If not adding one will make a world of difference
