I want to remove the US Seal and replace it with mine. Is the seal glued on.

I believe that the seal is sewn on. It is certainly not going to be removed easily. The hat is very well made. It would be easier to simply buy an all-blue hat and put the seal on yourself. Regardless, this hat is so well made and attractive that I wouldn't want to change it in any way. I love this hat. It is very smart looking and classy. And durable. I hope this answers your question.

No, its a real pain to get a seal. Thought i was going to break it getting it to work!

In my case, the seal I was replacing was along the bottom of the door. I opened the door, then used a little screwdriver to pry off a little black cap at the end of the track. The pieces of the old seal then slip out (assuming that they aren't welded in place with soap scum). In my case I the "t" part of the seal fit just right, but the flap is too long - so I have to trim about 1/4 inch off with some scissors, then also trim the ends for length, round off the corners etc (if you have the old seal, then it is pretty easy to use it as a pattern). Then you slip the new seal in (can use liquid soap as a lubricant if needed) and replace the end cap. There are probably videos on-line...

I've had 2 of these. My newest one, the lid is definitely tighter, but still a one handed operation. If it doesn't get easier quickly, I'd get a different one. Is the seal glued on properly? Maybe it slipped??

Yes, you simply remove the plastic protector of the adhesive and replace the original.

I can only guess, but I think it's a pretty good one. When I removed the old red seal, it was in extremely poor condition. The seal material was stretched out of shape, and was 'wavy' (no longer flat).I gently cleaned each surface that the new yellow seal would be in contact with, using a SOS soap pad. That removed any small pieces of the old red seal that could cause a new leak, and removed the sticky residue from the old decomposed red seal. It's been 2 months, and so far, it works perfectly.I hope this helps. Bob

yes, just give it a shot of liquid wrench before you remove the old one, clean well then replace.

It is a sticker, it does not appear to be attached with rivets or screws. I would guess removing it slowly and the use of isopropyl alcohol or Goo Gone should be a fairly easy job.Honestly, I have thought of removing mine too.

It isn't fixable, toss it. This has happened to me with the numerous seal a meals I have purchased. It always seems to happen a little over a year after purchase, just beyond the warranty! But for the price I always buy this brand as I have tried others and they are even worse!

Not on mine, the top is sealed to container, so I'll have to buy a new one when empty.

Yes. We did the same thing. You can easily remove and replace it while fully assembled.

Yes, mine came sealed and I had to break the seal to open. It is NEW and the same that I have gotten from the company.

To be honest, it was sort of automatic - I took note how the old one came out and then just stuck the new one in - can't remember if there is a tab you're supposed to tear off before re-inserting. Sorry I can't be more helpful than that. Good luck :)

not sure of what you are asking. the seal is one peace their is'n any half and half when you take the pump apart you will see what i'm saying. very easy to do, and this will help alot.

Adhesive? It should directly replace the existing one and seal with the "O" rings. Then screw the cap on.

It is screwed on, the manufacture sent me a replacement (Life time warranty on American Standard).
