[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 473550, member: 15636"] You really should prime any tin to be gooped regardless of the product you use, see picture to follow that Johnny collected on his boats through the years. Wash area w/ vinegar, rinse and dry, then prime with self-etching zinc chromate primer. I'd also put nylon washers under the bolt heads and nuts, but that's me. Otherwise, I too prefer other goops over 3M's 5200, and prefer LifeCaulk by BoatLife. It works the same, looks the same, but co$ts less and even better ... the tubes last for YEARS, not like a year or so w/ 3M products.
