What did the factory use to hold the clear plastic on to
protect door card from moisture ???

Learnt a lot today how to take fittings off , the clear plastic
came off easy with what ever they used still sticky and I
was able to put the clear plastic back on using this clear sticky stuff.

This has been the first time the door card has been off , only
took it off to replace a few broken clips , but replaced all and
new bungs , no rust but cleaned the dirt out , sprayed some
fish oil before replacement , also greased the window track
which now works beautifully , I also replaced the foam
weatherstrip to the back of trim/door card which bunnings had
identical size Raven RP14A , now all back together .

Get PVA glue and paint the doorcards with it as well it will water proof them.
