Self leveling seam sealer is the way to go. Tape the edges so you dont get any where you dont want it. Put it on light and use two coats if needed.

Sem #39377 seam sealer work's great.Plus you can sand it to remove any spots that have any imperfection's.But you'll need the caulk gun for it.Joe

Self leveling seam sealer. Always use a two part for any kind of seam sealer. Sem and Fusor both work good for me. Down fall is that you have to buy a gun but well worth it.
