What version of Sikaflex for leaks?

Hi there,

I am starting from scratch again for a leak on my front driver side which comes between the liner and the door seal.

In the past I have used Dominion sure seal which has worked on the passenger side...

I want to try the Sikaflex this time as everyone here seems to recommend it.

Which version do people prefer? I assume it's something non permanent that can be removed if required?

Thanks a lot. 1999 Defender 110
2003 P38
2007 RR SC

I asked the same question about a month ago.
Sikaflex 291 or 292 are the two most recommended. They appear to be paintable. Not certain on how removable and are relatively expensive compared to the dominion brands you are used to ( I really like the dominion seam sealer when I restored a jaguar many years ago)

I've yet to find a local source for sikaflex near me so not yet able to provide any feedback.

Given your success with a different product then why change?

Not sure where you are in canada and how cold it may get there, which may have an impact on the best product to choose.
