I am removing my helm and likely windshield so I can do some repairs and general resealing. One of the main reasons is I have to replace the door sliders both upper and lower and I noticed my helm caulking is brittle as is the caulking around the windshield frame. Not to mention it is all discolored and that drives me insane. I also am almost positive it is leaking from around the window frame too, so it seems prudent to do it right. If there is a way to do it all properly though without taking off the window frame I would be really happy to hear that.
So when I go to put this all back together and reseal the windshield and the helm station what is the correct caulk/sealant to use? I was thinking 3m 4200 but then it isn't real UV stable, so then I have read some here about 3m 4200UV being a good choice, would that be the right one or is there something that is better still?
Also, any hints on the best way to apply it when resealing the windshield and helm? I am in Florida so temp hopefully won't be much of an issue right now. Not trying to rub it in, just so glad I don't have snow or "real" cold to deal with. :grin:
