alternative to carlite ? brush on rubber underseal stuff
givemethebighammer - 14/11/04 at 08:09 PM

a while back someone was talking about using something from B+Q instead of the "carlite" brush on rubber stuff you use under your arches etc to stop crazing of your gel coat from flying stones.

anyone remember ? was it any good ?

thanks

NF Auto do something like it called Wunderseal.

IIRC it was a rubber roof sealing compound....

dunno if anybody tried it though...

I use StoneChip from the local car place. easy to apply with a compressor and Schulz Gun. Goes on thick, and can be overpainted. Used it on last 3 rebuilds.. Is this other stuff cheaper then?.
I seal seams with Car Brushable Seam Sealer (not cheap), then cover with Stone Chip and sometimes paint depending on where it is on the vehicle.
