<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>On the rudder of #499 there is some black caulking
( now dried and cracked) covering the rudder hardware. I think George said it
was to protect the pieces from corrosion or something.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I can pretty much get the remains off--what do
I put on in its place? Would you recommend 3m 5200 (black) ,or is that over
kill. Perhaps another, less durable caulk would be better? Suggestions? Or maybe
it doesn't need to be covered at all.</FONT></DIV>
