Re: Transom Conducting Current but doesn't appear to be wet!

Thanks for the help and advice...

3M 5200 to seal the holes, right?

Also I have one hole that I would like to seal up on the outside. It is from a transducer.. It is a 1/4inch diamter hole.. Kind of large for a screw hole, but that can be another conversation.. :)

Would this stuff work ok for that is is it not to be trusted and order some marine tex or west epoxy from a marina.. I just go to the hardware store anytime and pick this up.

That stuff will yellow after about 1 year.

Your going/should die grind/bevel the edge of the hole..pack it with some Glass reinforced putty..minimum ..

A little grind out and a small patch of mat is best. then finish.
