Sealant for fuel tank cover

[FAS]

3m 5200 is listed as permanent adhesive sealant,4200 is more forgiving and is removable.both are gonna be tough to remove.8 ft of 5200 down each side is gonna give you a problem to remove.lotsa stuff out there.. polyseamseal? I will use a white pure silicone on mine,just to be able to raise the deck if needed.

GE silicone or boat life caulk would be my choice. Take some 100# mono and tack it down
first. Let it dry and caulk as usual. Next time the hatch has to come out, just pull the mono out like a zipper. 4200 and 5200 are the devil`s spawn.

I like the 100# mono idea, thanks! I will use that one for sure. I'll also check out life caulk.
