Default Bars Leaks, Alumiseal, etc...

I was talking to a shop onwer today about things like Bars Leaks etc... He mentioned that those are not the right solution except when the application (business needs) calls for. He mentioned that there are some other better products than those according to some industry trade information. He would not divulge the inforation over the phone. Anyone know specific products are better than the afromentioned?

Default never liked dumping particles into a liquid that has to flow.

Most of the time, you get mud.
