Re: which gasket cement to use on manifold

have ended up using the hi-temp copper/silicon stuff - partly so i can see if the gasket's got squish around every side.
turbo was left attached to manifold but wastegate was re-attached with the copper stuff on the manifold face, and exhaust putty where it joins the dump pipe.
i'll use the Hylomar on other important stuff like timing cover, thermostat housing, sump, etc where i can easily see if the face's have sealed all the way round.
is the loctite copper max a silicon-based stuff? or something solvent based? os something like their stud-lock compounds?
also, thanks for the advice.
