one of my rear hatch struts began leaking and the fluid got on the foam rubber hatch seal. thankfully i caught it before it was totally ruined but there is considerable expansion of the rubber causing it to be wavy and it looks crappy.
not to mention the possibility of not as good of a seal now....
is there a good chemical or maybe just soap that will help extract the flud from the foam? lots of chemicals have agents you can use to "neutralise" them...and i thougth maybe hydralic fluid would have something....
i squeezed the foam rubber with a towel and then a towel with water and got most of it out, then protected it from happenening again until i replace my struts...but if possible i want that rubber to contract again and get smooth. its a bit lumpy now.....any ideas?
and do NOT suggest a new rear seal...way to expensive is my guess and mine is still good...it just bugs me when i see it.
