perksy Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 As long as their not Excessively spaced you should be ok. You'll be sealing them with clear silicon sealant anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon B Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 or some kind of bonding agent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick A Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 thought i have read somewhere not to use silicone sealant as it causes corrosion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott beeland Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 only if you use the "bathroom" type that contains fungicides....Not good to chassis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazpowerslide Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 I used Sikaflex on mine. It sticks anything to just about everything else and is described as a "semi structural sealant" Use poly/latex gloves when using it, it took me weeks to get it off my hands. Chaz.
