Question:
Just bought one of these from you guys a few weeks ago. The instructions specifically state to use Selleys Butyl Mastic for sealing the rails that are riveted into the roof. This brand is not available in the US. What other product can replace this? Otherwise it costs like $50 to ship a single tube from Australia to the US. Theres about 20 different types of butyl sealant, some have silicon, some have asphalt, some stay soft, some harden, so not sure what is comparable.

Expert Reply:
The Selleys Butyl Mastic is a butyl rubber sealant that remains permanently soft under a smooth tough skin. We have an equivalent to that with the LaSalle Bristol part # 344270341411-1 that you can use when installing the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform # RR39QX.
