Re: [A/S] leak



I had a few leaks on my 1978 Ambassador that I could
not find.  I decided to take the whole trailer to task
to stop any and all leaks.  I took a sturdy utility
knife and I trimmed away all of the old sealer that I
could from every seam.  I don't know the name of the
stuff I bought from Jackson Center but it came in an
"oiler" type container with a small spout.  It has a
trigger to pump the stuff out.  It is grey in color
and is a think liquid.  I ran a bead of this stuff
along the seams and it tended to "suck" itself into
those seams.  The whole deal cost me $17 and a day of
work.  I went all over the trailer from top to bottom.
 It is watertight now.  Has anyone else used this
stuff and remember what it is called?
