Default 3M Rubber and Vinly Adhesive 80 for Underhood Heat Shield *** CHEAP***
Just found this stuff for $.01 per can. It is the adhesive that Rob Budd recommends to install his hood heat shield.

Dr. Bob, I just placed the order before I posted, 2 cans with shipping for $2.52. We'll see what happens and post the outcome.

Most likely a typo they will catch and change the site, then send us all an e-mail explaning why our orders were cancelled.

They take paypal, so no credit card worries.

I'd be happy to sell you some at 3 cents... Nope. Just as I was typing I got a call and the lady says that the product is "obsolete" and that she would be happy to offer a 30% discount off of a case of 6 of "another product that is similar"

Good try guys - it was fun while it lasted. Whats next?

Nope. You didn't miss out on anything.

I know the guys at this company. The store technology screwed up the pricing on the site but they tried to make good. The price did go down to what they said was their cost. plus you could get free shipping.

Interesting, the rep who called me used the excuse that the product was discontinued by 3M, offered a 3M replacement product, but had to buy min of 6 cans, would give 30% discount, not their cost and no mention of free shipping either when they called.

I would have rather they told the truth,. they screwed up!
