n_tensetuning Report post Posted August 17, 2018 I recall a few years back the on-going debate between using black silicone (matte finish) vs a seam sealer (urethane, etc...) Has anyone had success using the 3M Urethane Seam Sealant on the Countach body panels? https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/company-us/all-...2000&rt=rud Wondering if this can be used around the taillights? For re-glueing the Front Turnsignal Housing lenses and frames or rear quarter window glass and frames.... thinking this Polyurethane Glass Sealant would work? https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/company-us/all-...4273&rt=rud Curious what factory used and what those who've had restorations done used. Look forward to hearing about it. Thanks in advance Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
4xchamp Report post Posted August 17, 2018 I sprayed my car with a mattel black plastic paint then went over the seams with 3m urethane which is shiny because I wanted contrast over the matte. I'll post a close up shot. I believe at the factory they used silicone but research it, I'm not positive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

n_tensetuning Report post Posted August 18, 2018 4xchamp Thanks for your post and the photos. Very helpful i did some more investigation and looks like others have done well with the 3M Urethane Seam Sealer 08367 on the countach. Guess I will order some. Came across these sites: http://lp5000.blogspot.com/2013/12/urethan...tach-seams.html It also looks like some have used 3m Auto Glass Urethane Windshield Adhesive black (3M-08693) https://www.another board/vbforum/f1...ndations-26362/ https://www.autobodytoolmart.com/3m-auto-gl...ve-p-15923.aspx Thinking the Glass Urethane Windshield Adhesive would be best to use to glue the window frames around the car to the glass and glass to the body when doing restoration work ? Another alternative to the 3M Urethane seam sealant, that some have used in past is Sikaflex 221 polyurethane sealant black. https://www.emisupply.com/catalog/sikaflex2...wE#.W3iZoc5Kjcc btw pretty rare seeing a countach around these days.....even more one in black matte finish Dave Tough to see over the black Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
