As per thread subject I have noticed the boot outer skin and inner shell are separating in places on my saloon. It looks like some sort of black sealant/mastic has been used on mine. Anyone know how they were joined originally by factory and any recommendations on method to fix ?

Thanks 
John

On the three cars I built the boot lids were glued with a black glue possibly a sikaflex product

They were joined using polyurethane adhesive , Sikaflex 221 usually.

It's going to be tricky to get more in a small gap , you might have to separate the inner and outer panels first.
Maybe using a cheese wire like they do with windscreens if you can find a gap to start at.
