Eric,
I used a 3M product called WINDO-WELD 08609. Any overage comes off real
easy just rubbing it with your thumb after it dries. Got it at the auto
parts house in town... worked pretty good for me.
Cheers, Bob

I also have the new hollow bumpers. Stephane at Murphy said to just
Proseal them on. I'm skeptical that this will hold them over time.
Haven't decided how to attach them yet. There is not very much surface
area around the lip.

Sounds like you have those "new" hollow rubber moulded bumpers... not the
old multi-layered foam on a wood back board like most have.
I couldn't make heads or tails out of them on how MAM expected them to be
mounted... and no manual update... so I just stole the old set off the
damaged floats I have and put them on the new set I built to speed the
process.

No, no nutplates or metal inbedded into my bumpers like you would expect
...
and rivets didn't hold so I used 1" tapered sheet metal screws and a
nutplate installed in the backing plate for the single AN3 bolt. This
seems
to work ok.
Thanks

Hi Guys,
I'm not clear on how to attach these bumpers. A backing plate is made
and
attached to the rubber bumpers with 4412 flush rivets but the rivets are
concentrated on the inbord side with just 3 outboard. I guess I can use
some adhesive. Also, the backing plate ( bumper assy) is attached
inboard
with the AN3 bolts of the FL-212s but only 1 3/16 bolt is located
outboard.
I'm thinking that this bolt could be located further outboard, better
securing the assy ...? And no mention of a nutplate for this bolt.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Clay
It's been a while but I think there's nutplates formed into the bumpers.
