I have a friend with a Com-Pac 19. There are wood handrails on the cabin top, and we think that this is where the leaks come from. We also think that they are bolted in with nuts inside the cabin.
Is butyl tape good for a wood to fiberglass through bolted joint like these handrails?
I know some folks feel that wood fastened by screws (like toe rails) do better with 4200, and butyl is better with bolted items.
I have the butyl tape already, and she wants to get started on this job this weekend. I've sent her MaineSail's link on butyl tape already. I'm concerned if she were using 4200, she'd get it all over everything (heck, I get it all over everything...)
Thanks,
Brian
