How much roof gutter seam sealer to buy? #720311 02/23/2017 2:24 PM

Going to be doing the seam sealer in my gutters. Likely I'll be using 3M 08307 Self leveling From here:

And the 3M 08571 applicator gun seen here:

My question is how many of the seam sealers will I need to go all the way around the gutter on a 1985 Chevy mid-length? I was thinking 2? But I don't want to buy too much, or more worse come up short. There is all kinds of info out there, but nothing that I could find about how far it might go.

The product you are using is an excellent choice. The biggest thing is getting all the old seam sealer out, then use an etching or epoxy primer in the drip rail area. Once that has cured, scuff it up with a Red Scotchbrite Pad for adhesion, tape it off to avoid spillage and fill the rain gutters full.
That two part seam sealer cures quickly so it needs to be applied quickly and definitely not to be done in the sun.
Paint the seam sealer in the same manor, with the same paint used on the vehicle. You won't be doing it again.
Better to return one tube than run out while doing the work.
