[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 416261, member: 13599"] my personal experience with silicones and 3m-5200 is that it actually promotes corrosion on ALUMINUM. on steel, I have no personal experience. The Permatex automotive "non hardening" gasket maker seems like the most logical choice. (good thought) [b]Dale H[/b] often recommends the [b]West Systems 650 G-Flex[/b] that may work the best. https://forum.tinboats.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=40954 then, after you get it all buttoned up, do your own determination of "will it work like this" - or - CLEAN all the Permatex off the outside seams then apply the 5200. I would use the round head screws vs the hex head. Painter over, they will last. [ATTACH type="full" alt="metal screw.jpg"]86204._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
