I've been gradually getting rid of the leaks in the old girl and have been trying to track down a leak or two in the boot, which is filling up the rear tubs. I've traced it down to the rear panel joint that's hidden by the piece of carpet which sits at the rear of the boot. This must be due to the replacement of that panel following a 5mph rear impact in 2007 - yet more problems due to work not being completed properly!
Anyway, my question is, what should I use to seal the rear panel? I think it best to remove the rear bumper and seal both the inner and outer sides of the panel joint, to stop water getting in and make sure that it's sorted properly.
Should I use panel sealant or is there another product that is recommended? I guess it needs to cure off but be flexible too, otherwise I'd just use windscreen sealant (as I have a whole tube after doing the side trims
)
Cheers, in advance for any help
