I was just curious what everyone does for the sealant on the trunk pans where the peices are fitted together. Some of mine has peeled up and fell apart. I plan on having the car painted soon so i figures i should reseal the bad areas.

What exactly is the stuff?? Where can i get it??

And does everyone peel up all the old sealant and replace it or just the loose and missing parts??

Thanks for any info
 
I use polyurethane caulk made by loctite at lowes.

Clean, scrape, clean with judicious amounts of alcohol, the apply.

basically 0 shrinkage, high grade solids, acts as an adhesive too, remains slightly flexible forever, not made out of latex, not water based, bad ***, sure to be outlawed in CA due to it working great and not being comprised of recycled papier mache'.

Thus far, i have used it for sealing and bonding an expanding gap in wood and seam sealing my entire Duster after sand blasting.
It is a little more expensive than regular shi%%y practically worthless latex caulk.
Normal caulk sized tubes are about 6.50 where I live.

Construction adhesive at home depot works great too, no need to over think it.
