I am restoring the trunk area in my 74 dart, i had to remove some dried up seam sealer in a few areas, i am looking to recreate the factory look of the seam sealer, does anyone know the proper sealer to use and how to apply it to look factory? |

I don't have the link, but I'm pretty sure that Eastwood has something that would work. Just google it, and you should find the site. I don't know the proper way to apply...but it doesn't look like they spent much time on it! Good luck! |

that stuff that eastwood sells looks more like paint, the stuff that dodge used seemed to be thicker, more rubbery. |

Eastwood have the rubbery stuff, too, as do your local auto body and paint supply store (where the body men go to get their paint and supplies). |

3m and ppg both make several and there are other brands as well. As Dan pointed out go to a auto body paint supply shop. Some come in cans, some in tubes for a chalking gun. The ones I have used are black, tan or white. Just make sure it is a paintable sealer if you ar going to paint over it. Eastwood has some great stuff but some of what they sell are normal body shop supplies and might cost quite a bit less if you source them that way. Quicker too if you can just go pick it up. |

Thanks for the tips. I have never used seam sealer before. I dont think this stuff comes out in a caulking gun, it is spread out about 2-3 inches wide, and it is pretty thick, it almost looks like it was sprayed on. I will check with my local body supply |
