For future reference, Tigerseal is the wrong product for this type of job! although when set, the product itself is strong, it has relatively low adhesion qualities, its designed to fill gaps,,
The correct product is bonded windscreen adhesive, easily available from ebay from around a fiver a tube...

I found that with right prep tier seal is good. However that's what let me down with mine. Found it easier in the end to get a new tailgate with spoiler attached. Plus it was in better nick than mine so it was a win win.

People have used tigerseal for skirts, but I have heard of sikalflex being quite a good product. There is one in B&Q it is calls sticks like sh*t apparently sticks anything to anything!
