yetchh Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Does anyone know where I can get a non drying butyl mastic, and what is a reputable brand (I'm guessing sika/3m) for sealing a non bonded rubber windscreen seal.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yetchh Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Christchurch.. was thinking of one of the big three had it but I'm guessing as it's fairly specialised they prob won't.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty360 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Humm I'm in Auckland so no use sorry as I got a tube here. M10 mega sometimes has some different sealants from the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R3spct Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Go to a panel and paint supply shop and get the right stuff for the job mate, nothing in home handy range is really going to do a good job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yetchh Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Bostik 5614 mastic is great stuff where can I get it? I can only find 5615 which is a skinning mastic Go to a panel and paint supply shop and get the right stuff for the job mate, nothing in home handy range is really going to do a good job all the panel supply shops I can find here only seem to sell adhesive mastics/silicones, the other places are marine supplies but they only supply sikamastic and only seems to come in white..

flyingbrick Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 So in this situation for something so simple I have to wonder why this particular sealant is needed- what does everyone else do in your situation? And is non hardening really what ur after? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yetchh Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yeah it is, thats what they seem to use in non-bonded rubber windscreen seals so they can easily be removed and re-sealed, bonded all use urethane sytle cured high adhesion sealants so they don't fall out obviously.. I'm quite suprised to find it this hard to find the right stuff, I mean someone's supplying panel/glass shops.. it may be that I actually have to go into smith & smith or novus and buy a tube off them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonK Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 where can I get it? I can only find 5615 which is a skinning mastic Skinning mastic will work fine for a rubber fit windscreen/window Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yetchh Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yeah I'm guessing it probably will, it's still a non drying mastic, just gotta find who stocks it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorden Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yeah I'm guessing it probably will, it's still a non drying mastic, just gotta find who stocks it.. Have you tried ringing Wurth to see if they do anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yetchh Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Nah will try them, apparently blacks stock the bostick.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spencer Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Order online and wait? I end up doing that for lots of shit because most retailers don't put any effort in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
