What kind of silicone will work as a response system?

[yoyospirit]

Does Acmoore have the silicone they have here or is there the same kind at Lowes?

[yoyo-guy]

i dont get what's the question you were asking?

[yoyospirit]

Do they sell the silicone at Lowes?

[yoyospirit]

Can I get a quicker reply?

[Roaming yoyo]

any auto parts store should have flowable silicone just ask for clear RTV flowable silicone thats what i did and i found what i was some

[yoyospirit]

Does kitchen and bath silicone work well?

[Roaming yoyo]

i have no idea id just go get the flowible from the auto parts store just to be safe

I made an index here showing what types of silicone work well and what the colors mean:

Use the permatex stuff. It costs 5-8 dollars, you can find it at any auto parts store. One tube should last you for over a year.

Don't use the bathroom & kitchen stuff, you'll just end up making a huge mess.

What about this kind?  http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=51220-72643-GE284&lpage=none

Can I get a quick reply?  I have to go.

no refer to sicyo's post above

lol asking for a fast reply is no use if your topic is already at the top of the board.

[sicyo]

Nope, just use the permatex stuff. If you've got a Lowe's, chances are you've got an Oreilly or Autozone too

Will this kind of permatex work?

[fzzyrn]

that will work. Any kind of RTV silicone (which actually is every kind silicone that you can buy) will work, but caulk type silicones dont work particularly well. Adhesive and sealant type silicones will work though.

[yoyospirit]

How long would it last?

[fzzyrn]

depends on how well you do the recess and how deep the groove is. I've had recesses last anywhere from 10 days to forever. But it will last.

[yoyospirit]

Ok. Thanks.

[yoyospirit]

Is this one of those you recommend?

The second one is the one you want.
The first one DOES NOT harden.
If you go to auto parts store you can get flowable, which is much easier to apply.
