Re: [A/S] Vulkem ?
Dan,
You are about to unleash a torrent. Silicone is by far the worst
"sealant" possible to use on the skin of an Airstream. Airstream has
always used Vulkem. The difference is Vulkem is a polyurethane based
product.
Silicone, while appearing to stick will allow moisture behind it as it
will not adhere to the aluminum. You will soon hear tales of whoa by
those that have spent countless hours taking silicone off. My self among
them.
