no idea if it would work but i could imagine this stuff moulding to the correct shape and then maby could be epoxied in place ??

i use it for allsorts but have no idea how effective it would be ?? if all els fails wortha try i suppose :?: it drys rock hard and is pretty tough stuff but wont bond on its own ..but could make the basis of a seal with the right adheasive ?


whats the wether forcast ..wheres me map
