Hi,
I will be reattaching the body to chassis of the 83 tl at some stage and wanted to buy the black mastic stuff.
The sealer is available from renault with part number 7701423330. It normally comes in a box of 20 units (cost is €113) and Im just wondering if anyone knows how many units I'll need in case I can track down a dealer who can sell me only the required amount as opposed to a box?
Thanks
Nick
 
mastic

just use metal spacers to bolt down, then fill the gap with Tiger seal, thats what i'd do
 
Just in case anyone is wondering this in the future. Ive been told that two rolls will be enough and it costs €6 per roll. The local renault dealer has some in stock.
 
I used Terostat mastic sealer which is a plasticine-like material, with the form of a bead 10mm in diameter, and sold in 10m rolls. It should be pretty much similar to what Renault used, but easily obtainable here. I used just over 10 meters for the whole chassis.
 
I am planing to use wuerth product.

This one!

I think it is butilen rubber very similar to original one.

Does not get harden over the time

Hope that 17,5m will be enough for whole chassis
