Hi guys,

Can anyone recommend a good sealant to use around a windscreen seal when fitting to ensure no leaks

Cheers, Mark

make sure the rubber seal is clean and the body is not rusty
the windscreen will make a nice seal

no sealant

Ok thank you for the info!

Just for future reference is there a particular sealant which is best for screens, for example on certain vehicles which are reknowned for leaking glass and recommended to be fitted using a sealant with the rubber?
