[C320-list] Frig gaskets

[hcreech at comcast.net]

Dave,
Thanks.  I was looking for an alternative solution, but none seems to be forthcoming.  I will probably order white gaskets from Catalina.  I measured the frig + dry storage and it appears that I'll need 16.6' of the stuff to do the job, I'll order 17' to be safe.  I will try your contact cement idea though.  The original installation was very sloppy and the excesive adhesive has grabbed all the yuck.  My wife has been bugging me, so I guess i'll tackle the job.
Thanks,
Sincerely,
Herb Creech
