Imoto Head Gasket Shellac Sealant Liquid – 59ml
Achieve reliable, leak-proof engine seals with Imoto Head Gasket Shellac Sealant Liquid (59ml).
Formulated for heavy-duty automotive, agricultural, and industrial engine repairs across South Africa, this classic slow-drying, hard-setting shellac compound dresses, seals, and bonds gaskets, threaded fittings, and flange surfaces against fluid leaks and high operating pressures.
Superior Thermal & Chemical Resistance
Imoto Shellac Liquid Sealant forms a tough, flexible protective barrier that resists engine fluids including gasoline, diesel, oil, grease, kerosene, propane, water, and ethylene glycol anti-freeze solutions. Its robust chemical formula ensures long-lasting seal integrity across extreme temperature cycles without melting, cracking, or breaking down under harsh under-hood conditions.
Versatile Automotive & Mechanical Sealing
Ideal for dressing paper, felt, cork, metal, and rubber composition gaskets, this 59ml liquid shellac prevents gasket displacement during engine assembly and fills micro-flaws, minor scratches, and rough machining marks on metal mating surfaces. Perfect for head gaskets, timing chain covers, oil pans, intake manifolds, water pumps, differential covers, and threaded pipe connections.

How to Apply for Maximum Seal Strength
-
Step 1 (Surface Prep): Clean and dry all mating surfaces thoroughly. Remove old gasket material, grease, oil, rust, and dirt using a solvent cleaner.
-
Step 2 (Application): Shake bottle well. Apply a thin, uniform coat of Imoto Shellac Sealant onto both sides of the gasket or flange surface using a brush applicator.
-
Step 3 (Tack Time): Allow the liquid shellac to air-dry for a few minutes until it becomes tacky before bringing the mating parts together.
-
Step 4 (Assembly): Align gasket and bolt components to recommended torque specifications. Wipe away excess sealant with alcohol or solvent.
