Tricky-Ricky Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 RTV is just an old term for silicone sealant (room temperature vulcanising) So does that mean you have tried the Locktite stuff and found it not good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay_vr6 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 loctite 5910 black gasket maker/sealer is what i used on my 1jz cam covers about 3 months ago, works perfectly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Tried and tested? Many times yes. Its a higher temperature sealant than straight RTV is, and sticks better to items that have oil residues than RTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
