KLASSIK1 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 actually Sam it is called weatherstrip adhesive , if you use seam sealor you will need a chisel to get the seal out in the future seam sealor is used to seal gaps in the body seams and hardens to a degree where weatherstrip adhesive remain plyable and easy to remove i recomend 3m weatherstrip adhesive Leo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7tonemonte Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Im not sure if you mean what holds the trunk seal in, or the caulk in the body seams. Leo is right for the trunk seal adhesive, and Sam is right on the body seams. For the body seams, I use a product from Lord. Its called Fusor, I think 800 is the part # It is a flexible seam sealer, comes in a tube just like caulk. It remains a little bit pliable and works awesome, paintable, and you can duplicate a factory look on any body seam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLASSIK1 Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 your right i believe i misread it would be flexable seam sealor brushable for the larger areas and in tube for for smaller seams Leo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverdone71 Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 THANKS,GUYS,I REALLY DODGED A BULLET WITH THIS ONE!THE DECK LID SHOWS NO RUST FROM THE INSIDE OF THE TRUNK,JUST HOLES IN THE BOTTOM OF THE TRUNK PAN TO THE LEFT SIDE NEAR THE DRAIN HOLE. A FAIRLY SMALL PATCH SHOULD GET IT DONE.SOME SEALER & WEATHERSTRIP ADHESIVE SHOULD FINNISH IT OFF.THANKS,GUYS...DUANE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
680HPStroker Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I used some goo be gone to remove that old adhesive and when I installed my new Soft Seal trunk seal it fit so good I didn't even use any adhesive. That was almost a year ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
