Anerobic Gasket stuff... again :)

So this stuff doesnt dry unless there is an absence of oxygen. Or in otherwords, it won't dry when oxygen is present. How will I ever get my tranny's new gasket to cure?

I will not get oxygen when the parts are bolted together. Never fear, the stuff will seal up just fine.

OK thank you. So I guess I just wipe off the excess on the exterior.

yep! that stuffs great! on the ocassiosn i have had to use it, i bolt it together, use a straight edge (putty knife usually) and "blade" it out flat filling any sort of crack or void between the two surfaces, and call it good. ive wondered about the chem comp. of this stuff...wether its truly inhibited by elemental oxygen, or wether its just a pressure set adhesive/seal....
