Siliprene - What is it?
I never heard of this stuff but it's used to glue some new skylight
gaskets I'm ordering to the frames. $22.95 a tube from the skylight company. Is this stuff commonly available under a different name or is there an alternative? -- Roger Long |

Don't see a 'find supplier' link, but there is a contact link that might get some info. BF "Roger Long" wrote in message ...

I posted a bunch of info last year. Typically the stuff is used to glue 40' truck trailers together. The best posible product for specific applications. I got mine in a 2 tube pack at about $8.50 a tube. Bob |

But can not remember the mag name. Bob |

Dow Corning 795 is what I used to glue Plexiglass windows in place. Same stuff is used on skyscrapers to bond glass windows in place. Both are not commonly available to the public, but may be available from glazing companies. Evan Gatehouse |

I think the phrase is "structural silicone." It aint your Wal Mart silicon sealant! Bob |
