nope

LOL ok...
I use the Red RTV High temp Silicone sealant on many things (I get it at Walmart ($3.95/autozone$7.95)
I use it to seal up leaky cell containers
can be used as an INSULATOR as well as it doesn't conduct when good and dry
 its a glue that actually holds up under rough treatment like automotive use
it seals around Nylon to ABS thread in fittings better than Teflon tape
(I've threaded my own holes for these nylon fittings only to have them leak quite bad, the cure is the RTV silicone!)
 
 I use it exclusively on putting my "Matt Valve" on my truck, it is the only thing that will stick well to the plastic "Snorkel and Air box"  if CLEANED well and roughed up !
it holds good enough that its just the RTV that is holding it on both ends !
...
...
 Remove the plastic cap and insert a screw into the end when you are done...so you can pull out the dried silicone for your next use... other wise you'll play hell getting any more out of the tube!
some times even that doesn't work... I've had full tubes harden up on me, very agravating!
I have some long 1.5" self-tapping mobile home skin screws, that I stick in the tubes now and it usually works fairly well....messy but it works!
...
 its also the only thing to seal back up a MAF box after you open it! makes it water tight again

I need a way to create a perfect seal between the plates and the electrical connectors on the outside of my cell.
Hope I described it properly. There is a post by LTCFISHER describing this but I was not able to fully understand what he described.

My electrical connectors are usually 1/4" stainless steel bolt ends...the threds... and they are a bugger to seal ! I've used inertube,rubber hose, compressed rubber hose (worked fairly good) and washers and RTV silicone....
 by far the nut/washer on the inside... silicone to fill the hole around the bolt,washer and nut, tighten it down good and let it dry for a day or so....
 this almost never leaks  as long as you cover the threads good where it passes through the container
... also it does not hurt to have the hole the bolt goes through to be a tad larger than the bolt so you can Squish the RTV into the gap and fill it up....
... I usually let my container set in the sun for a day maybe 2 to dry as the inside of the bolt and washer area may take a long time to dry being little oxygen available to it.
...
Bob...
for sealing wires going out of a container make the hole a funnel shape so the inside water pressure presses the sealant into the small end of the hole fill liberally with RTV... and don't forget the end of the wire... get the rtv on the end real good, to keep the water from going down the wire coating by capillary action.

I use the red RTV silicone for automotive use, don't think I've ever waited for it to dry lol, put to use immediately, but the systems I use have no pressure to speak of.
