I like to put Permatex High Tack.............red stuff in a can with a
brush, on both sides.
Super nice thick sticky stuff, yet comes apart just fine years later.
Been using it forever, and it's the only gasket sealer I use, ever.
Those gaskets only go one way.
they'll work the other way, but only one was is right.
