sealing seams

Post by jirikj »

I have a 68 and am down to bare metal and am wondering what seam sealer you recomend and do you use it on all seams and sand it down flush

3M Fast n Firm on the body seam on a bump bed

I will tape above and below and then run a tiny bead down the groove.

Then I use a small tool, like a popsicle stick to drag a uniform bead.

Then pull the tape off and let it dry.

They say it adheres to bare metal, but I dont recommend it. Prime it well, let the primer dry then seal
