Dear All,
The cockpit of my boat is covered with teak, looked pretty nice before our summer trip. During the trip, the rubber used for caulking melted away and made all our clothes and the deck black.
I decided to remove the old material and replace it with Sikaflex 290 DC. Even though the process looks simple enough, I would welcome your ideas and experiences as I have not done such thing before.
Thanks alot,
MSafiri
