4200 if you wanna take it apart ever and 5200 if you don't.

3M marine.

Gotta watch using alot of the adhesive stuff. Most of those aren't UV resistant and don't like direct sunlight. Read the labels.

Ayuh,.... Sillycones have No place on a boat,...... There are much better sealants to use, such as those mentioned above,....

Why is it Brian always recommends this and no one else? I talked to a buddy of mine that used to build big custom Crusiers and he said they always used life seal products.

I've used it before. Worked fine, but not much easier to remove the through hull than 4200 when i had to take it off again IME. It did seal as well as 4200.

I would put the Life Seal at a 3M 3200 if they made it.

Brian, what Life Seal product are you talking about? Is it Life Seal silicone?
