Where to buy bodyshop stuff

That, really.

I know a brilliant shop in Clacton, but I haven't had time to get down there. Is there anywhere good on-line for body shop type bits?

I'm after a few things (most of which I can't remember at this hour) but one of which is the double-sticky-sided thin butyl rubber type stuff for attaching panels. (And nope, I don't want to use double-sided sticky thin foam instead...)

Thanks to anyone that can help

I think theres an online store called frosts or something like that. My dad gets a catalogue through from time to time.

There's a good shop in Colchester (Gramic Supplies, on Magdalen Street) if you don't want to go as far as Clacton

I use Nwsr.co.uk

For double sided tape use 3m acrylic automotive tape. That's what I use and oem companies use.

Thanks for the above guys.

I found that 3m had their own online shop - obviously however, it's too much to expect 3m to know anything about their own products

http://www.3mdirect.co.uk/3m-5313-butyl ... x-10m.html (look at the Technical details tab

) All I want to know is dimensions (how thick) but apparently that's too much for them!

Incidentally, if you try 3m's proper site, you can't even find that product!

Honestly any place that sells glazing supplies will have that double sided tape (will be called security fitting tape or something similar).
