See Below: I got a little picky and wanted a white RTV like the factory uses for sealing up the gasket-less Ferrari gearbox junctions. It claims to be good for "motor oil and transmission fluid". But you know how these cars are built - Meaning there's a noteable cost in consumable gaskets and crazy time involved to get back in there if it's not so great. I figure to a large degree, sealants are very user dependent. Apply carefully, make certain all is clean etc. Thanks FC folks.

Apparently good for sealing screen doors. http://flexsealproducts.com/shop/flex-seal/?gclid=Cj0KEQiAsNyxBRDBuKrMhsbt3vwBEiQAdRgPsrmhQxAcXRk5YtYMVOCvM-qrE6o8ST_M1gvVkjMmTPoaAple8P8HAQ Image Unavailable, Please Login
I've used this for the motor to gearbox gasket and it's white. 360CH. It came recommended by a friend with tons of experience. Works great. Three Bond Silicone Liquid Gasket. Amazon has it. Image Unavailable, Please Login
I don't think (Hope not) it's the same stuff. Lawson products are big industrial suppliers for ground equipment, maintenance. If it is the same stuff, might be a great endorsement.
More good stuff. If you watch the ThreeBond promo video on their website, looks like they show a Ferrari.

Thanks. Pick a color! It goes a long way and I still have a new tube of 1211. Maybe go to 1215 and skip the 1211.
Me too. I got hold of a tube of 1211 through Amazon 'cause I couldn't find the 1215 easily. Also, I figure the 1211 should do a good job. Most of these sealants do reasonably well if applied carefully. Assuming they are for the right application.
I agree with this, it sets up in a timely fashion that allows you to get the umpteen thousand nuts torqued before it kicks off. Parts store stuff sets up too fast IMHO. This is the same stuff used by the factory on Ferrari cars too.
