I installed my windsheild and rear window over the summer but did not have the time to check it for leaks until this week. Anyway when I checked it for leaks both windows are letting some water get through. I originaly used butyl to seal the windows, but now I was only able to get 3M Urethane 08609 sealer from the paint shop. I wanted to know if it was ok to use this stuff to try and stop the leaks, or if I need to reorder some buytl from the catalogs.

Thanks,

Mario

IF i knew i would never have to replace the glass, i would use urethane, but as it is a gasketed application, i would say use the butyl. it can be softened with mineral spirits, if it needs to be removed. but urethane, once cured, is forever.
