Is it the same as Aussie rubber? I'm looking at new windscreen seals and wondering if they will be ok in our conditions. Could be good while the $A is strong again.

They'r not good even in european conditions... :lol:

My window rubbers started to fall into pieces after 3 years.
They'r not 1 piece, but volcanised/glued together.
And the joint start to let go quite soon...

Don't know - maybe quality got better in the meanwhile.
But I doubt it, to be honest.

All the temporarily produced rubber stuff seem to be very low quality from what I've seen recently... :(

Is any of it Australian still??
MCC had the 1/4 glass window seals made especially, but what about the rest??

I've got some of that here...I'm too scared to take it out of the bag lest it split :)

Much of the automotive and general rubber that is sold by the metre comes from China now. I know, I've seen it unloaded. :lol:
Not sure if windscreen rubbers are from there, yet.
