I am replacing the clearance lights on my 4-Star trailer. The old clearance lights have a sealant under to keep water out of the holes. It is a 2001 trailer and it is still moist, it has not hardened, and can be scraped off with a piece of wood. It is gray and when a light is removed it looks a a piece of gum stuck to the bottom of your show, it sticks to the light and the trailer. I have been to two home improvement stores, and can't find anything similar. Does anyone what it is called?

I have a roll of it in the garage, I don't remember the name.  I bought it at the place we bought or 5th wheel.  Check camper supply places.

One product is called Mortite. It comes in a roll consisting of individual strands thinner than a pencil that can be compressed or rolled into any shape. It basically is a non hardening clay type sealant material.

Polysulfide caulkings work very well, Sika and 3m5200 are excellent substitutes

Best of luck

I went to Camping World and bought roll putty, it is just what I was looking for.

Gard, thanks for the additional information.
