Kesta ... This area has been discussed many times. Use the search button for more opinions... This is from my experience.. I think that caulking over the old leaking caulk is a waste of your time and materials. You're depending on the already failed caulk to support the new caulking. The best and easiest method of removing the old caulk is a knife to cut the majority off. Then use a wire brush wheel in as powerful a side grinder or drill you can get. The wire brush leaves a clean metal surface for the new caulk. Sundowner uses this caulking on the exterior of their trailers. It's very durable. The caulk used is a moisture cured polyurethane. Manufactured by Sika Corp. 30800 Stephenson highway Madison Heights, MI 48071, 248-577-0020 The name is Sikaflex - 221 SF, Product code is 220-242 The color I used is "AL Gray" You might also try marine / boat supply as a place to purchase it too.
