Re: 1933 Spare Tire Cover
CC33.....when I made my spare wheel cover some 2 decades ago I was unable to find a rubber buffer that was a tight fit and required no adhesive. From memory I bought a rubber strip from Paul Beck, The Complete Automobilist, here in the UK. Doubtless there'll be someone in the US who has something suitable.
Regarding the adhesive.....I found a black rubber compound in a tube, reputedly made from fine rubber granules. Not an impact adhesive...
As David accurately states, do not attempt to install the two components with the wheel mounted on the bracket.
Whilst the wife is shopping at Walmart, borrow the duvet and lay it on the grass.
Fortunately, to date, I have not a had a puncture! "Touch wood"
