Rusty Joint
(WITHOUT SEALANT)
Tighten down all nuts & bolts and THAT'S IT! You are now ready to use your rack.
Apply a healthy air tight bead of silicone around every swaged joint to prevent
moisture from leaking into and out of the joint. If this is not done properly, the
inside surface of the tubes can rust and rusty water can leak out. Maintain this
joint seal throughout the life of your rack.
