Re: [VAL] Is: Wheel well sealing, Was: Test and Question
I assumed that it would go without saying that the mud and grime would have
to be cleaned. I only glassed on the out side the joint between the wheel
well and the floor the reasoning being that when traveling on wet or rain soaked
roads water is thrown up with great force and calking will fail over time
and moisture will cause the floor to start to rot.That was what happened on my
65 Trade Wind. Fortunately it was not so bad that it could not be treated
with penetrating epoxy.
