Shanester[TK] Posted November 20, 2017 Report Posted November 20, 2017 Hey folks! I have been having trouble with the s-trim on my helmet coming loos when I remove my helmet. I tried securing it with E6000, but over time it came loose again. I am wondering if anyone else has had this issue and found a good fix. Quote
justjoseph63[Staff] Posted November 20, 2017 Report Posted November 20, 2017 I had the same problem with my Hero bucket, Shane. I ended up buying a small tube of 2 part epoxy from Lowe's and have had no problems since. I removed all the E-6000 first and actually took some sandpaper and sanded out the slot before applying it to help with adhesion. If you decide to go that route, I suggest getting the "instant mix", which comes with a long thing applicator ideal for getting inside the slot of the S trim without getting it all over the place. Here is a link to the product I used: https://www.lowes.com/pd/LOCTITE-Epoxy-Instant-Mix/3218845 1 Quote
themaninthesuitcase[Admin] Posted November 20, 2017 Report Posted November 20, 2017 Ideally you don’t need adhesive as the trim would be a tiny bit too long and so pressure fits against its self and holds the trim in. However if that’s not the case I had success with UHU holding my brow trim. Quote
