3M Marine Adhesive Sealant 4000 UV (05280), Medium Strength Flexible Waterproof Adhesive Sealant for Boats and RVs, UV Resistant, Cures in 24 Hours, White, 3 fl oz Tube

Works better than any standard RV sealant. I always use marine quality items on my RV... They last longer and perform better on the road.

Moving to a new house, we unknowingly let a vinyl lined hot tub (Softub) sit in the summer air upside down for three months. BIG mistake. This resulted in several rips and tears (including one 2 feet by 6 inches!) in the inverted sagging of the long-water-dependant vinyl. We thought our hot tub was a goner. Tried numerous hot tub rip repair kits, and none of them worked well enough for this major repair job. The hot tub was aging and had served us well for nearly a decade, so we didn't want to purchase a complete replacement liner because of the price - either fix it or toss it. Vinyl patches provided were strong enough, but none of the vinyl patch kit adhesives were able to really withstand the stresses of a full 300 gallon water load on the stretchable vinyl. We made all repairs while tub was empty so as to obtain the best seal. In addition to vinyl-specific glues and patch kit adhesives, we tried vinyl contact cement, shower pan liner adhesive, and every single type of PVC/vinyl glue at the local home improvement store. Not even Loctite plastic bonder would hold once the hot tub was full and chlorine was added to the water. As a last resort, we decided to give this "below the waterline" "hull repair" "permanently flexible" sealant a try - and WOW! it sticks to everything. We gave it a good cure of several days (this was outdoors in winter, so took a bit longer). We used this to adhere the vinyl patches to the tub' vinyl liner, to each other, and to feather around the edges so as to prevent bathers from tearing up the sides or water working the sides loose from the jets. 2 months in to this repair, from which no other product/system/glue previously lasted longer than a week. Much impressed by the miracles of modern petroleum strength commercial chemical derivatives - nicely done 3M!

Product is great, easy to apply. Ensure you clean/ dry surfaces well prior to application and tape off where you don't want over spread. 3M Marine Adhesive Sealant 4000 UV comes in thin metal cartridges like tooth paste not a paper tube. If not shipped in proper packaging, the cartridges will be dented, bent or even punctured. I received two wrapped in plastic bag envelopes both packaged in a paper Amazon bag together. ZERO protection. They're not punctured but are bent up. I had to straighten the bottom where the pull tab is to work in my caulk gun.

This is the best sealer I have ever used, the self-leveling is a great tool that allows the flow into the cracks, also sets up quickly, I did apply this stuff while it was above70 degrees which I believe helped with the cure time It may cost a little more but trust me it is well worth it for sealing the roof on my car trailer.

I bought this product for sealing the lens to a Bomar hatch frame on our sailboat. It worked great and provided good adhesion to both the plastic lens and the metal frame. I then decided to use it when replacing a portlight window. It seems to have worked very well there as well. It seemed to be easier to work with than a competitor's product that I used on a previous portlight. Time will tell as to how well it holds up and remains watertight. I especially liked that the instructions on the tube said that cleanup can be done with isopropyl alcohol. As cheap as isopropyl alcohol is, I was excited to use a cleanup agent that worked well and that I didn't have to feel that I needed to use sparingly due to cost. the alcohol cleaned up the sealant very well. The only negative that I can say is that it is fast cure (as the label says). It was almost too fast cure when applied to the lens. I left it set a bit too long (20-30 minutes) before dressing up the seam and it was difficult to smooth out-- my fault for waiting too long. As long as you clean up the seam and smooth it out relatively soon, it should work great.

I used this product on my RV. Works great. Don’t buy what the camper stores sell. Boat products way better than camper products. Still holding up great after several trips.

This is an excellent product overall. While marketed as a marine sealant, it can be used in other applications where a waterproof, UV resistant seal is needed. I previously used this to seal around mounting brackets for solar panels on an RV roof. Now, I am removing dicor sealant around vents and other openings on the roof and using this instead. Based on my experience with it around the solar panel mounts, it seems to be far superior to dicor and similar products sold as roof sealant. It sets up quickly and acts as both a sealant and an additional bonding agent. I suspect it is strong enough to hold the solar panels by itself (I used VHB tape as well). The only downside I have found is it does not keep its shiny white appearance over time; it gradually turns dull aand yellowish, but as long as you use it where the appearance does not matter it is a great product.

This product, like all 3M products is outstanding. I used it to reseal a Pilothouse to deck seam that had developed some leaks. The previous seal/caulk had dried out, shrunk, and cracked. I cut it out and refilled the joint with 4000. I cleaned the area with acetone, masked off beyond the seam and applied 4000 with a caulking gun. The sealant flowed smoothly and filled the joint completely, easily resealing the leaky joint. This product is waterproof so cleanup is messy if you get it where you don’t want it. It does not smooth with a wet, gloved finger, merely smears. Apply enough to fill your joint and no more. Small overages will be “cleaned” up when you remove the masking. I applied the 4000 to a joint almost forty feet in length overall and the cure time is not so quick that I couldn’t easily pull the tape without pulling the caulk. It made an attractive seam and fixed the leak. Unlike 5200, 4000 doesn’t dry/cure so hard that it has to be ground out to remove it, but can be cut out with a knife at some future point if necessary. Unfortunately, this item was shipped by Amazon and though the box was undamaged, the interior bag was never sealed properly and the included nozzle was absent, having escaped through the improperly sealed inner bag before it was ever placed in the box. The fulfillment center never checked that the item was complete, because it was not. The delivery was quick and secure, the filling of the box was not.

Pero para apuros está el Fasf

es un sellador especializado para uso náutico de muy buena calidad recomendable para embarcaciones de recreo como veleros y yates

Lo aplique en un kayak después de 3 meses sin problemas

Buen producto, tengo poco de haberlo aplicado a mi kayak y va bien. Al secar su textura es suave, parecido a silicón. Éste modelo 4000 es semi permanente, por que se supone es relativamente sencillo retirarlo para cambiar la pieza o tornillo que está sellando y volver a aplicar una nueva capa del sellador. ACTUALIZACIÓN (FEBRERO 2023): No recomiendo comprarlo. El producto es bueno pero solo pude usarlo 1 sola ocasión y el 99% restante del producto no pude usarlo. Cuabdo lo abrí limpié la boca y lo cerré con su tapadera. Al intentar usarlo de nuevo la tapadera estaba rota, supongo que se hizo presión al secar el producto de la punta. No hubo forma de retirar el producto seco dentro de la boquilla...intenté con desarmador, con un tornillo, con acetona para suavizarlo y nada dio resultado. Los objetos traspasan el sellador, pero al apretar para que salga producto se bloquea con el que está seco y no sale nada incluso usando mucha presión...un completo fiasco ¡Tengo el tubo lleno de producto pero es inutilizable! ¡Dinero tirado a la basura!

una vez que lo abres ya no lo puedes almacenar, sólo utilice un 10% del producto el resto se pego y la parte trasera de la lata se rompio al tratar de reutilizarlo
