I have read on this forum that using silicone on metal will eventually cause it to corrode and rust. Is there any truth to this?
Last winter I was out wheeling, and my rear fenders aren't trimmed. So my tire was banging around on the rear quater panels. This broke the seam around the fuel fill door, which allowed water to come in and collect at the bottom of the quater panel behind the tail light assembly.
To seal this up I used a huge amount of silicone. Is this going to cause my quater panel to rust from the inside out? Should I remove the silicone and seal it with something else?
Any tips on removing the silicone? It's a real tight area and a lot of silicone.
