When you choose this imported sealant, you're opting for a product trusted for its consistency and effectiveness in critical sealing applications. **Ideal for Specific Automotive Tasks** — This sealant is perfect for mechanics and DIYers working on valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, and other stamped metal parts requiring a reliable, yet removable, seal. It's particularly useful when a chemical gasket is not feasible or when future disassembly is anticipated. If you need a sealant that withstands common automotive fluids and extreme temperatures without becoming permanently bonded, this is your solution. Those seeking a fast-curing, permanent adhesive for structural bonding should consider other product types. ## How to use 1. Clean and dry all gasket surfaces thoroughly. Remove all old gasket material, oil, grease, and other contaminants. Ensure surfaces are free from moisture and residue for optimal adhesion. — Prepare Surfaces 2. Apply a continuous bead of Permatex Form-A-Gasket #2 Sealant to one gasket surface or to the stamped metal part. Use approximately 1/16" to 1/8" bead for best results. — Apply Sealant 3. Assemble parts immediately after applying the sealant. Tighten fasteners to the manufacturer's specified torque. Allow for slow drying and non-hardening properties before exposing to fluids. — Assemble and Tighten 4. While slow-drying, avoid exposing the sealed area to fluids or high temperatures until a sufficient initial seal has formed. Full cure time varies; consult manufacturer guidelines for specific applications. — Allow to Cure ## Product details | Field | Value | |---|---| | Cure Type | Slow-drying, Non-hardening | | Resists | Gasoline, Oil, Grease, Common Shop Fluids | | Temperature Range | -54°C to 204°C (-65°F to 400°F) | | California Proposition 65 | Contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm (e.g., Methanol, Lead) | | Suggested Applications | Valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, dressing/sealing cut gaskets on flexible/stamped parts | | Application Method | Apply to clean, dry surfaces.
