Hi,
did you stick round the whole door or just the upper half of each door as the photo only shows the top part.
thanks

It's all round. Very easy to stick it. Just need a little knowledge where is the optimum part to stick it for better result.

I've been studying where to stick the lining the last 2 days and was wondering if it would be more effective to stick on the door instead of the body, exactly the stretch that compresses onto the inner rubber lining (the part on the body)

Was thinking for $10.00, might give it a try and see how it goes when compared to the way most of the rides are done.

bro, u aint the first to think abt it.  one sunny at the mcf diy meetup. he actually had 2 layers of the lining. one on inner lining of door, and one on the door frame itself. The effect is  but the door will definitely be a lot lot harder to close after that. 

but anyway bro.if you do try, pls tell us the results k?

yep. it goes round the whole door frame as what bro stephen has kindly helped me answered.  the whole roll of lining will be able do up all 4 doors.

thanks
cheers!

Just DIY it in my MSCP. Got some advice from Corgan that you have to pull the tape while sticking it so it will get firm and not loose/thick.
The main thing of pulling is to ensure of enough/excessive of the tape as while doing my 1st door, I find the remainding tape like 'not long enough' to do the rest so i called corgan and asked for advice.(I redo the 1st door again & had a foot excess  )

After pulling & sticking onto the door, I had an excessive of 3 feets.
Yes!!! It's darn hard to close the door now. If got passengers, I have to ensure I'm the last to close the door so that the rest can easily close the door 1st. ( And let me do the 'hard' work... )

CheeRs!!!

[corgan]

haha. actually there are 2 reasons y need to stretch the material.

1. if you dun stretch it, there will be no tension so the material will not be firm. Also, the material will be thicker so the door will even be harder to close. 

2. and to ensure that 1 roll is enough for all 4 doors. (actually most people will end up with about 3 feet left on average.  )

bro. just let the material season out for abt 2 weeks. Then it should be a lot easier to close le. 

[corgan]

thanks
cheers!
 

No prob bro. you want me to reserve one for u?

haha. so fast ah.  the inital seasoning should be the most, but the material should still provide the vacuum effect or else no use le

It is still effective and the vacuum feeling is oblivious.  At least I'm happier that the door is getting easier to close that soon as expected.
