Which Sikaflex?

[GrandadPig]

I need to accomplish three tasks (so far) on the boat.
1/ seal between wooden toerail and GRP deck. Do not want or need to remove toerail but would like to replace some missing sealant/caulking.
2/ need to refit a price of teak to the foredeck. It was originally bolted and glued/sealed with white, slightly flexible stuff.
3/ reseal/bed assorted cleats and other deck fittings.

so I googled Sikaflex Marine and there are several types. Can anyone suggest which is best for which job?

thank you

Steve

And then go to tool station and buy from there

For number 3 consider using butyl as you are likely to need to remove those items at some stage.

Consider Everbuild Stixall or Everbuild Puraflex 40 as less expensive alternatives to Sikaflex adhesive sealants available from Screwfix and Toolstation ( Everbuild is a Sika company)

Stixall is a polyurethane/silicone hybrid selant and said to be highly UV resistant

Puraflex 40 is a polyurethane sealant
