Re: Seam sealer

I bought a quart of Eastwood Beige in a can. I plan on using an acid brush to paint all the body seams I can get to. Am considering some type of aerosol for what I cant reach with the brush.

If you sandblasted your cab or used paint stripper I would reapply seam sealer on all body joints/seams to prevent water intrusion.

The 3M is a good choice too.
