Trailer is a Keystone 2300BH.
I have one door that part of the weatherstripping is peeling off, and i'm not 100% sold on how well it seals to begin with. I've never seen or felt water in there, but I think it needs to be replaced so I can be sure about it.
It was stuck on ok until I started cleaning this past weekend...I knocked into it and a small section loosened...so i'm feeling replacing the whole thing.
I know you can buy this stuff at any rv place, and probably any of lowes, home depot, walmart maybe?
Anyways, I'm looked for specifics. Maybe someone found something better than the stock stuff they put on these doors? Or tried something else and it didn't work as well?
My plan is to replace it before this weekend, climb inside the area with a flashlight while someone sprays water on it so I can verify its sealed. Need to do it soon, because its unpacked and first trip is this weekend. And its clean in there right now lol.
I bought mine at wal mart. The stuff at the RV places is exorbitant and its often the same. Even for a relatively small door you need a lot of linear feet of the stuff. If it's too wide I put it on and use a knife to trim it. I would really like to find some of the really good car door seals to use but they too are way too much money.
The hard part and most time consuming is removing the old stuff completely so the new will stick.
Good Luck.
BTW My older brother lives in Shelby MI.
