Howdy,
If you have the finish kit you might want to check out the Door P-Seal bundle. (See attached pic) I found the tubular part of the Door P-Seal had bonded to itself at many of the bends due to the tight bundle.
I had about a 3 month delay between receipt of kit and inventory but if I had not noticed the problem it could have set on a shelf in this condition much longer.
I tried to work them loose by hand, tried a small dowel with a blunt end, and used low pressure air to no avail. I finally sent it back to Van's for exchange and included a note about the problem and suggested they not wrap it so tight as to cause the kinks. I received no response to the note and the replacement P-Seal was bundled just the same and the tube was again bonded at many of the bends. This time however I was able to work them loose by hand and have stored it in a much larger diameter coil so as to avoid the kinks.
If you have this item I recommend you do the same.
