[C320-list] 3M 4200 fast cure

[Jon Vez]

You might want to consider using Butyl Tape. This is what the factory is now
using. If you google 'Bed it with Butyl' or go to the Compass Marine
website, there is an excellent tutorial by 'Maine Sail' on using it. If you
want to stick with a sealant, try 3M 4000UV. You do not need strength, just
flexibility and sealing....Have not heard about 4200 being discontinued....

Good luck...

My starboard deck fitting for the lower aft shroud is leaking slightly in
heavy rains. I had planned to rebed the deck fitting using 3M 4200. Three
area WM stores are out of it in the 3 oz tube (don't need the large size)
and 2 stores said that 4200 has been discontinued by 3M (however it's still
listed on the 3M website). Any information on what to replace it with (don't
want to use 5200) and whether the rumor is true?
