In the video below, I compare the original butyl/putty tape application to Dicor Butyl Rubber Sealant. I share my initial thoughts and the pros and cons of this product.
P.S. Before you ask, no, that isn’t me on the tube! It’s actually “Rudy, the Dicor Products Answer Man.” (Well, he’s actually busy actor/model Gary Dellmo.)
