Ive had enough of my passenger footwell filling up with water everytime it rains so im going to re seal the door membrane that i partially removed to fit speakers and handles etc.
What is the stuff called, it s really elastic and water tight i assume, my mind is telling me silicone sealant but then im sure that the stuff for tiles in the bathroom lol.
Im not really sure what to use.
Many thanks.

silicone will do the job,
its used lots more places other than bathrooms 
silicone sticks most things, when im on building sites i see them sticking the oddest things up with it that you wouldnt expect,
we use it to stick carpet gripper and door strips quite a lot, (better than no nails most of the time)

depends what you want to stick and what type of no nails you use tbh,
when im working we dont use cheap no nails is no good it always cracks and fails, we use pink grip, gripfill, or some called "sticks like s**t" and is actually called that too lol

well if i am resorting to tiger seal i have got to be wanting to stick something with a strong bondage
but ROFL to sticks like s..t never heard of that, dont think i am going to need tiger seal but when i used to mess about with my old cars i used to use tiger seal to stick door rubbing strips on... and some other stuff lol!

i use it for sticking rubber strips down when floors change height in hospitals and other contract locations, also things like nosings on the edges of steps in schools or factory's etc so yer its quite good lol
no good for sealing tho, silicone / tiger seal or similar for getting a seal.
