Try it yourself, when fastening through these tapes, the adhesive climbs up the threads and encapsulates the screw head. I'm not making a judgement between Dicor and these tapes for sealing. I know what each do and there's no call on my end.westend wrote:

I hope their video works. It shows the screw driven through the tape and an aluminum trim piece.
I might even think about VHB tape and then sealant if I was doing this.
The link references Etherabond Putty Tape which is different than Eternabond used to seal seams and the like. Using some Dicor caulk under the cleat will seal it up just as well.
