Besides losing RH, what does an improper seal on a clooidor threaten to do? Using the paper test on my cooler yields what seems to be a poor seal. My RH has been a steady 71% over the past 6 days. If i was to install some weather seal on the inside would that helpl, what should I use to glue it to the inside of the cooler? Thanks for any help guys.

The weather stripping foam I've used in the past actually had a sticky side to it so thats all I used.

I lookedfor that stuff, but couldnt find it and ended up buying some stuff that had no sticky on it.

what ever glue you use you will need to let it air out....Gorilla glue or super/crazy glue.

actually, I decided to just let it go and see what happens. Its been about a month now and the RH is holding steady at 70%... my only real concern is how friggin' fast the cooler is filling up with those damn Tatuajes!!!!!

Just took into thought, that the best way to control humidity is to put cigars in the humidor. I spent more time taking care of mine when my stash was low, been building it back up now and notice I do not have to mess with it at all.

Yep, the best humidification device is the cigar!
