+1.

A well known glass company came to my house to install the rear window, cost me $85. At first, they installed the gasket, no sealant whatsoever. wtf???? It leaked like a siv. They have been out another 3 times using the sealant I told them about, and it still leaks. I am about to take it to another shop who know how to do it right. What a joke. Oh yeah, I will get my $85 back.

only on glass with a rubber seal

the glass to body setup in the 69-73 cars use butyl tape not urethane
