3/4 windows dont close well with new west coast metric rubbers on 70 bus any ideas

cant get a good enough seal to stop leaking on 3/4 windows, i am considering using sand paper on them, i have tried vasaline, any other ideas?

Is the rubber sitting in the car correctly,

Are you sure there WCM

If so return them to whoever you bought them off

There are some alternative rubbers available

I used WCM on mine and they are a bit stiff, they will soften up after a while and seal a lot better.

mineral turpentine will soften them up, it will accept it ok..

i believe they are in properly, but as i havent seen many i wouldnt know for sure
thnaks for the advce seem like i have to patient...will try the suggestions and in the meantime stay out of the rain!!

i thought they got harder as the got older not softer(this sounds really bad...must keep mind out of gutter!!) so they start out hard then get soft(that makes sense!:kiss) then when they are really old they get hard again!! How come my VW has all the fun:kiss

nuthing like getting Hard n soft again...
