I ran a bead across the top of my Brazos cook chamber yesterday. Covered the bead with wax paper and closed the lid. Today, the wax paper won't peel off the sealant. What did I do wrong ?
I fail to understand the reasoning on covering RTV.
RTV cures on exposure to air
Plastic wrap... That's the material to use... BUT ..... You already knew that...
hmm... The curvature of the door doesn't match the curve of the cook chamber. I will never solve those leaks with a gasket.
...
I've tried the felt gaskets. I just put the Oklahoma Joe's gaskets on it. Waste of $20 and my time.
Thanks. I wasn't thinking gasket over leak seals.To stop it from sticking to the mating surface... It's for making a gasket that's stuck to one side only ....
Clamps like this one will "pull" and hold the door closed... Over time, with the heat of the smoker, they may even "permanently" reset the door.....
