Resealing to fix leaks

• This works only if there is no rust. Most European cars have rust caused by the stainless trim clips cutting through the paint.

1. Remove the deck lid/tailgate from the car.
2. Carefully flip it over onto a soft surface so you can get at the inside where the glass-to-deck lid seam is.
3. Take masking tape and run a strip around on the glass and another on the deck lid leaving only the old sealer exposed.
4. Using a caulking gun, filled with either silicone or urethane sealer, run a bead around between the glass and the deck lid.
5. Use a putty knife to push the sealer into the seams, cracks, and crevices.
6. Wipe off all excess sealer and then QUICKLY remove the masking tape.
