:lol: I think the name does it no favours. Is it just another name for gasket sealant or something that supposedly replaces gaskets? I rarely use gaskets without a thin, repeat thin smear of the blue stuff, thinking it's better than having to do the job twice, on the off chance that a bare gasket lets by. It's the old theory V practice thing.
