clear caulk/sealant for trim

Postby BillZ » Wed May 17, 2017 5:48 pm

Hello all,

Back after a long hiatus from the forum.

I am doing some refinishing on my woody teardrop and need suggestions for a good clear caulk to use where the trim meets the ply.

Thanks. I was kind of leaning towards using sikaflex crystal clear. One problem, I can't find it for sale anywhere in the States, not even online.

Lexel. It's a bit tricky to deal with, but should last a few thousand years.

It's much better than any "silicone" sealer.
