I purchased a windshield and 3m butyl wound ribbon sealer from Sierra Madre last year and am now just getting around to installing the chrome trim. It won't quite snap into place and I fear that the sealer is too thick. SM has been very helpful, but has never run into this problem.
Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know what thickness is recommended. The SM bagged sealer did not list the thickness. Thanks, George Thielen Dayton OH Bonus Video of first start up in 30 years.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y71MzugT7l0 |

Hairdryer or heat gun perhaps? You can control how much and where you want the heat.
