... I thought Hylomar WAS petrol proof? Im sure it used to say it was?...not read a tube of it for a while tho.
Prob couldnt see the wee tiny writing now anyway !
Hylomar is my usual gloop of choice.

The Three Bond is great stuff and easy to clean off with Brake cleaner but it's sticky and slightly awkward to work with in certain situations.
Blue Hylmomar is deffo petrol proof, says so on the packet and I've even used a light smear on a petrol tap to tank seal before with great results.
Ironically the RTV Clear Silicone I've always used on YPVS Head Gaskets (never had a leak) says it's not fuel proof lol
