What’s the advice on removing the fuzzy seal’s aluminum retaining tracks at the top of the doors for paint and/or fuzzy seal replacement?
I’ve already completely destroyed one of them trying to remove it for a complete primer job before paint - not to mention also enlarging the sheet metal screw holes on the door itself (including broken drill bits ) where it mounted. That was done after liberal amounts of penetrating oil to the screws front and back. The little sheet metal screws are frozen solid (on my other door) also, as well as these screws being small and prone to stripping at the philips head. I could just leave it on and tape off really well for paint and primer but I’ll have to remove one track from my parts car to replace the one I’ve already destroyed either way. So, how is this best approached?
Also, is it even possible to remove the old fuzzy seal and replace with a new one, without removal of the aluminum track?
