tigerseal is more a glue, this is a sealant so surely better? i duno hence i asked, i know its for house hold but it seals house roofs, so surely a car roof will be fine lol

try it m8 but you will have to have a damn clean surface for it to bond to and once it's on it a bastard to get off it up to you really but like ya say if it seals house roofs then ya no but totally up to you

get some liquid metal m8 it a 2 part stuff that ya mix and it for this type of thing should do the trick

instead of that sealant get a clear silicone frame sealant from wickes or something. i rekon it would probably be better than roof and gutter sealant

My mate used Kitchen and Bathroom sealer from Wickes. Seems to have worked ok. Was a bugger of a job though.
