    What is the best seam sealer you recommend for re-doing my trunk seams? I kind of like what was in there previously from the factory, the softer stuff. Does anybody know where to get that stuff at? Or what did you use, and how long has it lasted?

    Maybe some of the other Rust Bullet users will chime in, but you may not need seam sealer if you do the entire trunk area in Rust Bullet. But, I also sprayed my entire trunk with bed liner after the Rust Bullet.

    Thanks for the link. That looks like it will work better than the tube stuff.


    Terry, that's a good point. I am doing the entire trunk. Anybody out there skipped out on seam sealer since they did their entire trunk?

    I did, but as I stated earlier, I also sprayed my trunk with bed liner. It could be a "redneck bathtub" if not for the fact that I cut a slot in the bottom of the sides so water could get out.

    Lol! I can see it now. "Check out my Maverick. I've got a tub in the trunk!" I don't think I'll do the bed liner. Instead of that, I want to use the Black Shell.
