3M 200 mL Flexible Foam Automotive Sealer (8463)

3M 200 mL Flexible Foam Automotive Sealer (8463) is a two-part urethane foam designed to replicate original equipment manufacturer (OEM) flexible foams in automotive applications. This closed-cell foam expands significantly after application, making it ideal for filling cavities in door skins, intrusion beams, roof bows, body panels, and other areas requiring sound deadening, insulation, and structural support. This product comes in a convenient 200 mL cartridge for easy application using a compatible 3M applicator.
