It's just called seam sealer. Get wet on wet stuff if you want to paint over it. There are loads of makes, quality doesn't vary very much really.

I'm also interested in some information on this stuff as there doesn't seem to be alot about.

Any chance of some examples? And maybe places where these examples can be bought?

Thanks :kiss:.

Ask for a PU (polyurethane) seam sealer. Sticks like nothing on earth, but never quite sets, and takes paint fine. 3M do one, or there's Sikkaflex. Both excellent, not cheap, and only available from a proper paint factors.
