Looks like the right stuff, I bought a tube of it but didnt use it, my seal fit pretty well so I am hoping for no leaks. If it leaks then I will add the sealer, looked like too messy of a job to try using it while installing the glass.

And I was always told there was never a stupid question. I went to a glass shop and they said they had not done a windshield like this in a long time and was pretty sure the 3m product was what I needed but where not sure so that's why I asked again. Sorry!!

No I'm sorry no need to react like I did although I do find it odd that a glass shop wouldn't have or at least be able to order you the right stuff . Are you trying to fix leaks in a rubber gasket windshield or just wanting to put extra in when you install it ? If the rubber is in good shape it's rare that it would need sealer

I am also in Canada like reg1952, carpenter suggests using a specific sealant (which I cannot even find on the internet) the glass shop suggested a butyl sealant (which they cannot get any more) but sent me to a body shop supply (older guy there also said they could not get it any more and suggested to try it dry) the auto glass shop also thought I had 2 heads (young guy) and said they only use urethane, told him I was looking for a sealant not a glue? I was going to try "lumber yard butyl" but decided it looked too thick or heavy. The point is this is still a legitimate question.
