This is the Mercedes factory sealant that is used extensively on the mercedes motors at metal/metal mating surfaces including those with metal gaskets. This sealant is known to last over 300,000 miles when applied properly. The sealant is used above and below the head gaskets, above and below the intake manifold gasket at the cylinder head, above and below the intercooler gasket, seals the valve cover access panels, the oil pan and countless other areas on the motor. This is the good stuff!!!!
The tube includes a plunger type piece to push out the sealant manually but we recommend the use of the mercedes sealant caulk gun for an easy consistant application.
For resealing the mercedes valve covers you should only need 1 tube. Mercedes used the sealant very sparingly on the valve covers at the factory and we believe this is the reason they all seap oil from the breather covers. When we reseal covers we completely dissasemble and thoroughly clean the valve covers and then apply a thicker bead than mercedes did at the factory. This has been done with great sucess for many years now.
