We have been using the Sika MoveIt product which seems to be very good but with the low reimbursements from the insurers we are taking a loss on each application.
Any other suggestions of a urethane for a cold weather climate that is less expensive, and how much? My techs are telling me there warranties will go up if we switch, but we have no choice.
Cold weather to me is anything below 60. I use PPG rapid seal 200hv or Essex One on any job not in a body shop. Have had a few moldings come loose but haven't had a leak in 4 or 5 years. I cover my cost on kits but there really isn't much to spare. Use Essex 418hv when I know the vehicle isn't going anywhere the same day I work on it.
Have you tried the U-428 plus from Essex? It's less expensive than 418 and works really well!! I use ONE or Express for anything that going to be moving or if it's cold!
