"Hi, I'm Doug. I work with twenty great guys in St. Louis at Doug Jenkin's Custom Hot Rods, and we're going to do some work for you today on Expert Village. Now Alex is going to seal up the repair work we've done in the trunk. The seam sealer he's using is a 3m product. It's real high quality. You want to use the best quality seam sealer you can. And he's gonna lay it out in nice clean lines. And he uses wax and grease remover. The cleaner that we use to prep for paint has a lubricant, so when he brushes it out with the paint brush, the wax and grease remover acts as a lubricant. He doesn't get it stuck onto the paint brush and make long stringy zoobys all over the trunk floor, and it keeps the seam sealer from pulling hairs out of the paintbrush. The seam sealer is real sticky, so the wax and grease remover makes it so you can smooth it out. It makes for a real good look there. "
