A method and apparatus for applying a seal to a structure, for example sealing an aircraft fuel tank. The method comprises: providing a mould part; positioning the mould part against a surface of the structure thereby to create a mould cavity between the mould part and the surface; introducing a sealant into the mould cavity; curing the sealant within the mould cavity thereby to apply the seal to the surface; and removing the mould part from the surface with the seal applied thereto. The sealant may be a UV curing sealant and curing the sealant may comprise passing UV light through the mould part.
