Imoto Head Gasket Shellac Sealant Liquid – 59ml (Pack of 12 Bulk Workshop Box)

Equip your automotive workshop, service center, or fleet maintenance garage with the Imoto Head Gasket Shellac Sealant Liquid (59ml - Pack of 12).

Formulated for professional mechanics, commercial engine rebuilders, and agricultural repair technicians across South Africa, this bulk 12-bottle trade carton provides 708ml of total active shellac compound—ensuring your workshop stays continuously stocked with classic slow-drying, hard-setting gasket dressing.

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.

Key Performance Features

  • Bulk 12-Bottle Workshop Box (12 x 59ml): High-volume trade pack designed for commercial garages and fleet maintenance.

  • Heavy-Duty Shellac Compound: Hard-setting, slow-drying liquid sealant creates a permanent leak-tight bond.

  • Resists Engine Fluids: High chemical resistance against petrol, diesel, motor oil, coolant, water, and transmission fluid.

  • Gasket Dressing & Surface Filler: Fills uneven flange scratches, micro-voids, and imperfections to ensure airtight seals.

  • Prevents Gasket Slippage: High-tack adhesive consistency holds light cork or paper gaskets in position during bolt torqueing.

  • Wide Fluid & Heat Compatibility: Operates reliably across broad automotive temperature ranges and mechanical vibrations.

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.
