Can this be used for the seal of a sunroof? IE: Using this product around the metal frame before it is place inside the roof of the vehicle. (Almost as if you sealed around it with silicon culking) Or is butyl tape a better solution for sealing out...

It worked perfect for me when I used it to seal my convertible top to rear glass window. However, I strongly recommend you also get the 3m primer to help aid the the bondage of the. Window weld

I used it to seal the area around a sky light and it worked. My only question is how long will it last?

I had water getting in thru the sunroofs, so I used a seal tape to seal around the sunroof on the roof of the vehicle. So far so good, one year, and no water pouring down the windshield, or out of the seat belts in the back.Also...for the top screw that is difficult to remove, Since i had no intention of putting a screw back in that spot, I used a pry bar to pop the screw, and clip out.worked perfectly! Good Luck!

Altman is spot-on. This stuff really isn't all that sticky. If you're taping something on the outside of the vehicle, forget this stuff (won't last). Inside - you might be okay, but be prepared to occasionally replace the tape. Also, as with any adhesive, there may be long-term damage to plastic surfaces if the conditions are just right. If you're in a place like Phoenix with high temps, the heat may cause a chemical reaction between the adhesive and the plastic surface it touches. Of course, that's if exposed for some time, and it doesn't happen over night. Use caution and good luck!

I used it on my car's door seals and it did not last long, but this may be because those seals were already dry and needed second pass. In my opinion this should work fine for you, but you still need to apply it from time to time. If you want longer effect you may want to look for something denser.

I haven't used it on the interior door seals during the winter...I will tell you a little trick that does work pretty good though - plain old petroleum jelly. Unless it gets super cold, petro jelly works pretty good to keep interior seals from sticking in winter. I use the Gummi Pflege on my exterior window seals and it works great if you work it in. Other protective sprays didn't provide me with an even coat on my car. A lot of the newer cars have went to more of a rubber/silicone compound that is supposed to last longer and not dry out as much - I prefer good ole' fashioned rubber seals. The new stuff seems to be affected more by pollutants in wash water and rain water.

I used it to attach magnets to glass. It worked exceptionally well especially after the recommended curing time. No doubt it would attach the rearview mirror to the windshield if you can find a way to secure it while it's curing (tape?), my question would be if it would hold up to the heat and cold extremes. If my rearview mirror came off the glass, I would certain give this product a try, it really work on my application. (It was a rather heavy tempered glass plate (with sentimental value so I really didn't want it falling and breaking) that I wanted to put on my fridge. The glue was quite loose to work with, but cured like nothing I've seen before!! Super-duper strong.

The reason I chose this product is for its bonding ability to rubber roofing surfaces,many silicone products do not work well in this regard....Bonding to a rubber roofing material has been excellent!!!! Also recommended by the installer!!!

I used it around my basement windows but around where the concrete and window meet but I will frame the basement 'someday' and it will be covered by trim. If you're wanting to seal a window so it cannot open and close you will have a hard time removing this stuff. You would be better off with clear plastic and tape or use one of those window insulator kits.

Each Permatex gasket adhesive is specific for the function on the label - that said - I use the black most b/c it's a great adhesive as well - I recently did the valve covers on the old Yellow Dog Pickup and it seems to work as well for that app as the specific gasket sealer. I've used the Permatex line for decades - me fave is the black - reading the instructions on the packaging and tube seems to imply the products R for making gaskets rather than sealing or augmenting factory-type gaskets. I've done both. Reckoning what could it hurt added to a replacement gasket. It's a great way to stick a gasket that has a tendency for fall off during installation. ~:0) VivaChas!

No. This does NOT seal anything! It only fits in the metal trim pieces normally around the edges of the trailer and various seams to hide the screws that hold the trim down. Many trailers use Butyl Tape between the window and the outside surface of the wall. It can be found at RV stores, on Amazon and sometimes hardware stores.

Go to HomeDepot. Go to where they sell Duct-tape. Get the aluminum tape for outdoor use. It looks shiny silver roll of tape. I get the one with the highest temperature outdoor tolerance. When you get back at your trailer, clean the surrounding area really well with some dishwashing soap and water. Dry it really well. Take some rubbing alcohol with some paper towel and wipe the area lightly. Don't need to rub it. This will make sure there are no greasy area left. Take the aluminum tape and cut a piece big enough to cover the hole. Take the backing paper off and apply it over the hole starting from one edge of the tape, pressing and rubbing the tape as you move slowly over the hole with the tape. Do not apply pressure over the hole with the tape just go around the hole. You don't want to puncture a hole through the tape over the drilled hole. After you are done, put a bead around the edge of the aluminum tape with the Dicor rubber sealant. This will prevent any moisture later on to be creeping under the aluminum tape. If you can see the hole inside the trailer, you can put some clear silicone caulking sealant in the hole and wipe it smoothly and level with the ceiling. Save the aluminum tape and sealants. You might need it in the future for any other roof repairs. I check and inspect my trailer roof every so often throughout the year especially before winter and before the rainy season for any possible leak potentials. I hope this helps. Happy camping!!

The back peels off. It is self-adhesive like a tape. Make sure the roof surface is dry and as clean as possible for best results. This is really a great product. If you can, I have found it's best to apply it when it's sunny so it can bake on once applied.

This stuff is made for book cover repair, it's exceptionally durable. Masking tape is made of paper and the glue is weaker than book tape glue. Probably same for vinyl tape, i.e. you could use it but it wouldn't wear as well or as long. I only tape outside covers of books, I use rubber cement or white (Elmers'type glue) for insides of spines, regluing pages or signatures. The books I repair are used by high school boys (!!) , and I have found that this book tape, if properly applied, does a very good job.

I assume that you're wanting to use this on a temporary basis to protected the headliner while you're doing interior work or something. If you're planning on a permanent install, it won't be the most attractive product. But, you should be ok with this as a temporary protectant. It's pretty sticky but shouldn't damage vinyl headliners. On the mouse-fur or velour type headliners, don't press it on too hard and you should still be ok. When you remove it, you'll probably have fibers attached to the sticky but it shouldn't pull it bald. You might also consider using Glad Cling Wrap from your local grocery store. It's similar but thinner. Might be easier to just remove the trim and take the headliner out. Good luck.

This is a great product. We also used it to seal a fiberglass roof. Follow the instructions with regards to weather temperature and application and it does exactly what it says it will.

You can use it any place you would caulk. I've used it around windows and door frames. I've also used it to seal up spaces around my window air conditioners. It holds in all temperature extremes and through all sorts of stormy, rainy weather. I highly recommend this stuff.
