DanGull Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Damn right it is - nice, small tight beads. Shows good prep and thorough application, although one side of your roof is better than the other judging by that pic (that's not a jibe...)

Ben... Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 It was a line down the middle and drained off each side. Doesnt look that way in the pic but I think it was fairly even. Look cool though lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once removed you can access the silver inserts which also pull off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
