Hello all,
Sorry if this is a repeat but I found nothing in search.
My Bomar hatch is leaking but otherwise in good shape.
I figure I'd try re-bedding it.
Perhaps the collective wisdom of the group could weigh in with advice.
My thoughts, subject to change, are to remove all screws pull hatch up from above, then scrape existing sealant and clean thoroughly with acetone.
Then re-bed with 100% silicone and re-install. Simple right? Probably not!
I await your replies...
Thank you in advance.
Steve
