When I was at mudskis the other evening, he pointed out to me, that I may have had a new radiator put in, and they didn't put the foam around the rad back in.
Where does one get this foam? Does it have to be specific type of foam for temperatures or anything self adhesive as long as it seals up the gaps ?

Clarke rubber is your friend mate... pretty sure they sell the foam in strip with a sticky backing on it.

Rare spares have that sort of stuff on the roll. You just pay by the length.

Another option is to use foam spray

I've been out and had a look at mine which had a new after market radiator when I bought it and there is no foam on any of mine 😐.

Have you got any pic's?
