Just so you won't be surprised, this stuff, the good stuff is expensive, at about $10 per tube. Don't make the mistake I did in assuming that since the stuff coming off the car is fairly rigid, that the new stuff will also be rigid after drying. I put on extra thinking that it would be easy to sand off afterwards, WRONG. This is essentially silicone caulk with something like gypsum in with it to give it some bulk. Treat it like any silicone, put it in right the first time if at all possible, clean off excess immediately so you don't have to go back and scrape the excess off, for if you do you will pull more than you want to remove. I had to remove all of it, then start all over. It turned out well though. Jeff '67 Sqbk -----Original Message----- I normally use some 3M brand seam sealer. This can be bought at an auto body paint supply store or a very good FLAP, then you just load up your caulk gun with a tube of seam sealer and lay in a new bead in place. I hope this helps. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
