Looking for a flexible, quite runny liquid, stick-to-anything sealant
for s/s chainplates that go down thru teak caprails then are bonded to
the inside of a glass hull. Would like a 2 part product if possible.
Would like to pour it down the opening around the s/s (which is 1/2" x
2"). The water comes out 3' aft of where it leaks in.

b...@chaud.com brought forth on stone tablets:

BoatLife polysulphide (Liquid) is pretty darn runny, it sticks to most
anything, and is flexible when cured.

Why is two-part important?
