Light seals are commonly found in the back cover of film cameras and near the flip-up mirror of some SLRs, and proper maintenance of them is needed to prevent light leaks from altering your pictures. Thoroughly remove the old foam first, then simply cut the new foam into the proper shape and attach it on the same location. Application is simple thanks to the product's peel-off adhesive backing, which eliminates the need for a separate adhesive.

[0.118" / 3 mm] Redoing light seals on a Konica C35V- easy to use and although the backing tape was a bit tough to pull sometimes it did allow me to avoid sticking the backing to itself. More than enough material to redo several cameras- will purchase again! 5

[0.118" / 3 mm] I used this to repair the seals on my Mamiya C330 viewfinder. Worked great. 5

[0.045 lb] Great stuff... Cuts easily with a sharp Olfa blade, back adhesive is very sticky. Use some alcohol on the adhesive to extend the time you have to position it in place. 5

[0.045 lb] I used this to both repair light seals on a medium format camera and to create a mask for scanning negatives. The backing isn't too hard to separate, and the glue material sticks well. 5

[0.118" / 3 mm] I recently bought this product from B&H after I could not find a service to do light seal replacement on my Nikon FG. I suggest cutting the foam with the paper side up to give a clean cut using an Exacto knife, a metal straight edge, and a cutting board. I used rubbing alcohol to allow me to position the foam. Great product and highly recommended. 5

[0.045 lb] I bought this to do fix a Yashica Electro 35 that was in desperate need of new light seals, and it seems to have done the trick! It's stretchy, easy to cut, and it feels nice in the hands. The adhesive is strong. 5

[0.118" / 3 mm] I have several old film cameras and I find this material works very well for replacing the deteriorated light seals in these cameras. I use the 1.5 mm thickness mostly for this purpose, but I have also used the 2.0 mm to replace the mirror bumpers in SLRs. I make and cut out a pattern on card stock, then trace it onto the backing of this foam for cutting. The only trick is to be sure to orient the pattern so the backing side is the one that will orient to the proper camera contact surface. 5
