Hey all,
Just looking for a recommendation for a sealant to replace the factory's for post stitch welding. Also looking for tips on application such as apply only from the bottom and any areas in particular to watch out for. Thanks!

Go to a local body paint supply and buy seam sealer, I forget now the
brand I used it got vary hard and I sanded it down to look good but I did
not seal a plate I welded to the crush zone and it bleed rust really quick. I
recommend you seal anything that looks it could potentially trap water but
most subies are not as much of a nightmare as VW's, and parts like the
wheel well plate in Subaru's can be spot cut out and cleen the botom of
the car up.

beed rust quick.
