Got a 63 Chevy 1/2 ton and I bought some seam sealer in a tube form from Sherman Williams auto paint store. I have water leaking in from the roof of my truck during heavy rain. I removed all of the britle and broken up sealer that was up there for probably 47 years, sanded and applied this sealer that I purchased. Dont remember the name of it but about 2 days later I noticed that it had started cracking so its clear that it wasnt the right sealer or need something else to mix with it. Can anyone recommend a good seam sealer and the proper way to apply it.

Go to eastwood.com, they have seam sealer. I bought some for my rain gutters and it is solid with no cracks.

NAPA sells Martin Semour seam sealer for about $13 a tube. It's specifically for auto use and works very well.

I used to do bodywork for a living and still do work on the side. I think my favorite choice hands down is the trusty 3M FAST AND FIRM. Lacquer thinner can be used to smooth it out and for clean up.
