Mike,
On the recommendation of my local car body repair garage I used 3M 08509 Windscreen Sealer, this is a mastic sealer that remains flexible, seems to stick to anything and makes an awful mess!, easily cleaned off with white spirit.
It seems to have done a good job and will allow future removal of the glass if need be, exposed to the air the outer surface skinned over but still feels a bit tacky.
We also put it under the new front screen rubber which seemed a bit too soft, not quite as deep as the one boda supply and did not sit as flush as I would have liked on one corner. The sealer filled the gap but any pressure in the corner would force a bit out so I over sealed that area with Granvilles Black Silicone Sealer which drys to a non tacky finish.
If I change the front screen rubber at a later date for the BODA supplied one I will use the 3M sealer under that as well.
Geoff.
