Re: [A/S] Re: calk
In the 30 odd years that I have used #M 5200 calk in all aplications mostly
in marine use and for below water line use through Hull fittings and for
bedding the shaft log. I also I have never seen any of the problems you describe.
Nor have I ever experienced problems with mould.As far as problems with
ageing when I built my former home in 1967 I used 5200 to calk all window and
door frames and when I sold it in 1999 the calk was holding as good as when 1st
built.The new clearance on the Silver Albatross replaced in 1999 bedded in
5200 are still holding So tightly that I gave up trying to remove them to
replace with the new LED lights.
