It comes in different colors too.

Here is a link I googled;

I have used that stuff before, It works great!

I am to cheep and lazy to use that stuff though. But for anyone building a rack, I would recommend it.

Here is another take on how to make the gutter mounts, mine is a bit higher profile, and worse welds....(Just to keep it all in one thread)
