Drip Lip

What is the best way to seal up the drip edge on these things? I was thinking of welding the seams up then using putty. Anyone outhere have a good solution to sealing them up?

Re: Drip Lip

Seam sealer, like the factory did. You'll be good for the next 40 years.

Re: Drip Lip

Any auto parts store that sells paint and supplies will carry it. I get mine at either Napa or Carquest. It comes in a tube that will fit a caulking gun. Just make sure the old sealer is removed and the metal clean.

Re: Drip Lip

Got er cleaned out the other day. That stuff is a pain in the butt. I had a little surface rust under it. That's why I was thinking of welding. Also to make sure no water seeps in.
