Hi All,

My Aspect is one year old this month, and I've been told that I should do a thorough walk-around top to bottom and check all the external sealants for cracks or issues.

Can someone please tell me what type of sealant I should use if I find some rough areas?

I assume I can scrape the old off, clean and reseal: What should I clean the area with?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi Warren,

Go to this link which will give you the sealant callout sheets for your year. They list the areas sealed by the factory and the recommended sealant.

I usually wash with soap and water and then use rubbing alcohol to clean before applying sealant.

Okay, noe the big question...

How to I find out what the product numbers relate too?

Do I have to order from my Winnie dealer? Or can I found out the brand/type of sealant used somehow???
