Which Sikaflex?
I'm trying to track down a small leak somewhere round the roof of our 17 yr old Rapido pop-top. I believe Sikaflex 512 is the stuff to use, but there are so many Sikaflex varieties - is this the right one, please?
So far I've tried strategically applying water from the spout of a watering can, working my way up gradually, and waiting to see which spot produces the water inside where it shouldn't be. (Luckily it seems to drain away quickly and I think it's vanishing into the locker space rather than being absorbed into the fabric, but I still want rid of it!) Latest tests consisted of putting gaffer tape on a suspect seam, then emptying a bucket over the top. So far I'm encouraged.... but I've been there before, thinking it was sorted, until the next really torrential rain proved me wrong, though I reckon I've reduced it!
Meanwhile it would be good to be sure I'm buying the right stuff to put in place of the gaffer tape.
Thanks.

What you require is siklastomer 710 👍Spelling might be a bit off but it is the one I used sticky non setting grey in colour.
