Team,
there are a couple of small leaks and some larger leaks in my old car topper. Any suggestions for repair? I would ideally like something a little more premanent than silocen (spelling??) and not as much $ as welding. The aluminium is so old that it may just burn holes through when welding.

Budget approach is a winner here - sikoflex product???? Metal 'putty' Quicksteel?

Your thoughts?

Cheers.
