I should have made the distinction. In my experience
RustCheck does funny things to rubber and leave a
residue. Krown (not Crown) is better on rubber and
wicks better into every crevice, it's amazing. Try
http://www.krown.com/ There is only a small dealer in
SSM and I have never delt with him/her. If you give
me your phone number, I'll call you and we can talk
about what to what for when y ou take your van there.
You should call ahead and see if they can get a 5
gallon can for you to bring back with you so that you
can do touch-ups every month or so - I do. So send
your phone number. I'm in Harbor Springs till the
end of the month if you stop by. M
