Mulco, by far. It's what all the pros use. Every conceivable colour to match aluminum/vinyl. Easy enough to use yet sticks tenaciously when dry. It's rubbery like you can't imagine. Just checked now and see that it's a Canadian company. I don't see it on Amazon. Maybe you're near the border and can find a distributor. It is sold by some big box stores here. Maybe Mulco sells directly to the public. Check it out.
Thanks Sub, but I am not near Canada. A friend recommended Lexel (see link below). Has anyone used Lexel? Thoughts? Thanks
