What would a turkey look like in a bath tub full of RTV??? I don't know but
at least there would be one less turkey around and no RTV available in the
immediate community to screw up whatever you might want to smear it on.

When I opened this shop, I went down to the NAPA store for some basic
items like hand cleaner, oil and libricants and, yes, one tube each of
three types of RTV. I knew then I wouldn't need it very often, but it is a
proper sealant for a FEW applications like sealing cooroded Jaguar fittings
when replacing a hose or making up a custom jig out of flotsom and jetsom
lying about the shop. Of the three tubes I used less than a total of a half
a tube the first year before they all dried up. All of that was used for
making jigs, but for the half tooth brush dap I used on the hose.

Ohh, and if it didn't come to you, when you got that turkey nicely
contained in the tub, any time the spirit moved you can go in and dope slap
him either for tension relief or exercise, as you prefer. This could put
Freudians and Jungians both out of work.

How 'bout it, kids??? Can you find in your Bentleys where is says,
"Smear a big dab of that blue snot RTV on the backs of the brake pads so
the next time you remove them you can fight them as long as you want until
the inevitable shredding of the piston boots. Remove the calipers. Remove
the boot lock ring and remnants of the boot and develop a technique not yet
know to mankind to remove all the RTV residue. Reassembly is reverse of
removal." See if you can find the initials RubberTyranticalVexation
ANYWHERE in the book.

PUBLIC SAFETY NOTICE: We do not wish for any turkey hunts to end up putting
a non-turkey in jepardy. The person who uses the RTV the first time is not
a turkey. He can claim ignorance. The one who reuses it after removing the
stuck pads has the clear cut smell of raw poultry. There are enough of them
around any medium-small town to provide for the yearly high school fund
raiser fun night. Give them the gelatinus unyeilding bath.
