Even though I hate the Billy Mays commercials, I am wondering if anyone has tried the mighty putty that he advertises. I was thinking that if it is as good as he says, it might be good for sticking down the winnebago roof seams. My coach has full body paint so use of eterna-bond doesn't appear to be practical. As of now I don't think I need anything as the roof seams seem to be OK, just might need some adhesive of some kind in the future

What Billy is pushing is no different than what you can find at Home Depot.
RectorSeal EP-200 is a 2 part, cut & knead Epoxy that appears to be the exact same stuff, and it DOES work providing you knead and apply to a prepped surface. I've used it on some pretty ridiculous things and keep a fresh tube in the coach.

Billy Mays is one (very) rich guy. Shouting about odd stuff pays well.
