  1. I still have " RR Gasket " maker . Originally used on aviation in the war , so didn't need a long life . It worked on all the cars I owned & maintained . Usually coat one side of my home made paper Gasket, to hold it were placed, & occasionally without any paper Gasket. If " Loctite 574 is as good ! , then it's worth using . As an aside a ' car maker' has thrown away all " spring & flat washers " just uses Loctite . spacesailor
