Is this stuff sold as being suitable for the heat produced by the exhaust vent?
I don't have a chrome furnace intake/exhaust plate, only a stainless exhaust plate, and there was no sealant of any kind on it. There is what appears to be an asbestos "donut" gasket on the exhaust pipe flange on the furnace side of the wall, and it looks pretty sad.
If I had never been fortunate enough to discover this forum, I would have replaced the donut gasket with hi-temp RTV. But, the inside skin on the Overlander around the furnace flange is pretty well eat up with dissimilar metal corrosion, and RTV certainly would not make it any happier.
I have thought about wiping the corroded skin area with a top coat of JB Weld, and then using the hi-temp RTV on top of that. Is this putty tape the way to go, or is there a better solution?
Thanks,
Tom
