    Wear gloves because this stuff stains your hands


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Had to use this since the surface between the 2 flat surfaces of the exhaust pieces where the gasket goes wasnt perfectly flat and the bolts didnt tighten it up enough for the gasket to work without leaking between the 2 pieces
