Floor tar repair/ restoration Options

[TonyA]

What does everyone use to repair floor tar sound deadening material. I have some popping up very little rust the cause of course. I am removing a small amount to good sound completely rust free areas and want to restore that to like new appearance. Any suggestions?

To be fair the wording on their site is “Custom made for the 914; cut into 6 pieces for an excellent fit on the floor pan.”

But I certainly wouldn’t call that excellent either (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif)

Appreciate the post though - it truly is a shame that people have to spend good money to find out that marketing trumps fit, finish, and function quite often and AA isn’t alone in this.

Ah . . Now I see the “exact” fit comment back on page one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blowup.gif)

George will say whatever you want to hear to make a sale. It’s always been that way.

Oh trust me . . . I’ve been in the 914 game since the 80s. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

I guess the point of my post was to commiserate with Garland and to say that AA isn’t alone in this behavior even though it truly isn’t right.

I appreciate Garland posting the truth and wish more people would show when parts aren’t as advertised vs money paid. Same as the discussion the other day about 914Rubber bushings that don’t fit, seals that don’t fit, etc.

I try to appreciate our vendors but no one likes getting screwed.
