For bleed through I should have included I was looking for it for the sound deadener especially that applied to the inside surfaces of the quarter panel and on 69-up seam sealers at those same locations.

Would agree that the seam sealer used where you illustrated on 64-68's didn't bleed through.


Good to see you here.

Thanks - did try it and was not happy with the results as much as the more time consuming way we edged up with. Maybe with more time and playing with it.  Of course others will have different opinions and experiences  ;)

While we're discussing the 3M product and gun. How many cartridges would it take to equal a gallon of finished product? I can see where the cost of the applicator and the product could be outside of anyone but a shop doing these sorts of restorations on a regular basis.


Unfortunately neither bleeds through like the original

Thanks for mentioning another option

Might fill a need when I need to do a set of front wheelwells - since they are much different from the other applications. Luckily this was a 69 Shelby so no need to apply sound deadener to the front wheelwells

Jeff-  How did this Sludge work out for you?  Would you use it again?  Any other problems that came up later?  Other comments...
