Roof Light sealant.
Hi all, i have a High top, and one of the sky lights is leaking. I've decided to completely remove the skylight, maybe both while I'm at it and clean it all and reseal it. Can anyone suggest a really good sealant for the job? I only want to do this once If I can help it. Many Thanks!

Tigerseal is in my eyes the best. It's about £6 delivered on EBay at the minute.

Re: Roof Light sealant.
We used SIkaflex 512 to reseal ours.
