Leaking roof guttters
I know this topic may have been done to death but curious as to whether I really need to use sealant? The gutters have always leaked a bit so I’ve removed all the old silicone sealant someone used and looking at the gutter no massive holes etc.

Rather than using more sealant like silkaflex can I not just paint the gutter well? 2010 2.4 TDCI Puma Defender 90

All sorted. Total clean out of gutters and then good application of sikaflex smoothed finish with thinners. No leaks no matter whether parked uphill, downhill, sideways……..

First time dry in 8 years 😁 2010 2.4 TDCI Puma Defender 90

Looks a cracking job 👏 have you filled them to the top of the gutter? could this be done on one with an expedition roof rack?
Kind regards

Sometimes the top of the door seals can let in some too, it can get there sideways and into the top, then into the inside of the window $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R
