Last night I was using some black RTV to Seal the seam on a silver tarp.

I have a couple Costco tube/tarp 10X20 garages end on end. have them covered with silver tarps, 24X18 and bungee`d down good. where the seams are sealed from the factory, I noticed in the last rain storm, the seal was starting to drip in about 15 places. so last night with a blue nitral glove, I was running a smear of RTV along the seam.

A coincidence you bring this up. I was tossing around the idea of fixing a couple places on the 240`s door gasket, and wondering if it would work.

I used some on a pair of rubber boots that slip over work boots with the buckles. I smeared it into the cracks on the sides, and a big one up the rear. works good. I just did this last week, had to go down into the creek to dig out the culvert under the driveway.

I have even used RTV on rain pants and coat a time or two.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
