I always use 3M "Fast'n Firm" Part# 08505. Works very well. LockDoc

Re: Seam sealer
I used 3m ultrapro urethane and had great results.

Re: Seam sealer
^ Great article. I prefer 2k, Fusor or 3m.

Re: Seam sealer
Is the seam sealer used on the driprail the same as what is used when mounting the wheel tubs to the bed?

Re: Seam sealer
When I did my drip rail I reduced the seam sealer with a solvent, and poured it onto the rail so that it would flow out nice and smoothly. 1 part solvent 3 part sealer was about the ratio I used.
