Back hatch compartment wet!
I opened our back compartment and it smelled musty. The carpet and pad were soaked. I ripped out the carpet and pad to let the plywood dry. I ordered new gaskets from ODM. Also the sealant around the rim might need replacing. What should I use?

Thanks, Kat

I like Parbond aluminum color. Unfortunately it had been hard to find lately.
