SAS Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Has anyone found any good suction cups for internal silver screens? I have a Fiamma set and the suction cups are terrible...they won`t stick to the screen properly. I am fed up with having to punch them then find they have fallen down or dropped off in the middle of the night.... it`s most disconcerning. :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigrem Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I find that cleaning the suction cups with meths, and then before you press them onto the screen a little bit of spit on each one works wonders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest peter Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Just get rid of them and use external ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brambles Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Also find cleaning with Meths works wonders, along with a clean windscreen. Sometimes they do still fall off, but I fold down the sun flaps and this holds the screen in place from falling. I never spit on them as it leaves unsighlty cricles to clean off screen in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithl Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Hi all, I've noticed previously that Marcle leisure sell 2 types of replacement suckers. Type 1 or Type 2. I've never bought any but just to let you know replacements are available. Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
