Kudos to Maine Sail

I ordered two rolls of the famous Bed-It Butyl tape from Maine Sail's web page on Sunday.  Notified it was shipped on Monday and it was delivered today - Wednesday. Looking forward to ending deck leaks.  Thanks, Maine Sail, for superior customer service.

Its great stuff, but a few words of advice: Don't overdo it when applying, or you may find excess butyl compound slowly creeping out of the bedded components for years.

Good advice.  Thanks.  I read Main Sails instructions very carefully.  Worst case I have creeping butyl instead of seeping water.  Sounds like a good trade.
