Bad Luck With Drip Rail

HELLO FOLKS,



I RENCENTLY CLEANED OUT THE OLD CAULKING IN MY DRIP RAIL, AND WAS GIVEN SOME GREAT SUGGESTIONS FROM ALOT OF YOU.
I SPENT QUITE ABIT OF TIME ON IT, CAREFULLY WITH A PROPANE TORCH, SELECT SCREW DRIVERS, AND A WIRE BRUSH.

I PURCHASED A BRAND OF SEAM SEALER MADE BY 3M. I APPLIED IT PROPERLY, RAN A SMOOTH BEAD, CAREFUL NOT TO OVERDO IT.
A WEEK LATER THE SEALER HAS YET TO HARDEN. I AM SOMEWHAT DISCOURAGED. I TOOK A SCREW DRIVER TODAY AND THE STUFF CAME OUT LIKE WARM BUTTER.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS ON ANOTHER BRAND TO USE. I ASSURE YOU THE RAIL WAS CLEANED TO BARE METAL, SEALER WAS GIVEN PLENTY OF TIME TO DRY BEFORE BEING PRIMED, AND NOT TO MUCH WAS APPLIED.

ANY SUGGESTIONS ON BRANDS ANY OF YOU MAY HAVE HAD, OR TECHNIQUES USED WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS A MILLION FOR YOUR TIME GUYS!!!

SINCERELY,
FIREMANCHUCK
