Seal tape restores a tight seal around appliance doors and panels to help prevent air or moisture leaks and improve temperature stability. Use it to replace worn or missing sealing strips that allow drafts, frost, or heat loss. What it does

  • Creates a flexible barrier to close small gaps and reduce airflow or moisture migration at door and panel seams.
  • Helps maintain correct internal temperatures and can reduce frost buildup or inefficient cooling/heating.
  • Replace when tape is cracked, compressed, detached, or visibly deteriorated.
  • Commonly used where a thin, form-fitting sealing strip is needed on appliance doors and access panels.
What's included
  • One seal tape.
Install notes
  • Clean and dry the mating surface before installing for best adhesion; remove old residue.
  • Cut to fit and press firmly along the length to seat the tape; trim excess as needed.
  • Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before starting.

Hello Dan, Since the cavity is not a serviceable part, all you can do is paint the inside of the unit. The door can be taken apart but this may require the replacement of the door choke 8171846 since it normally breaks during removal. Since it is no longer available and no satisfactory substitution has been provided by the manufacturer, I would not recommend dis-assembly. As a note, if you re-paint the interior, let the paint dry naturally. Running the unit to try to dry the paint quicker will bubble the paint and prevent it from properly sticking.

Hello Rich, The way I do it may be unconventional, but it works. Heat the tape with a hair dryer and slowly peel the tape up as you continue to heat it. It will surprise you how easy the tape comes off once you get the edge peeled up.
