Hole Sealant (1 Viewer)

[Hellboy]

I have removed the old awning light to be replaced with a new Labcraft Astro LED strip
Behind it I found a 15mm hole drilled for the small 12v wires, the hole is much bigger than required and filled with a permanently flexible sealant
It looks like plumbers mait but feels a bit more chewing gum like
Just out of interest does anybody know what it is likely to be...Thanx

Chances are it will be a ball of sealing mastic off the roll --like Broken Link Removed

probably the same stuff the rest of the van is sealed with.

I assume you will replace the awning light but if not you could trim the sealant and stick a plastic trim cap over it

I haven't seen this type of sealant anywhere else on the van it is very tacky...
I am going to back fill the hole with Sikaflex before fitting the Astro LL2
