So, I've been having some issues with sealing the lid area of the firebox and wanted to see what everyone else is doing to seal theirs.
I've tried the silicone rout so far and that basically burned off the first time through. I just went with the Nomex self adhesive high temp gasket but haven't had a chance to try it yet. I have a feeling it won't resist the high heat of that area so im looking for a plan B just incase.
I was thinking about the Rutland 2k degree cement with the flat gasket rope. Has anyone had any success with that? I've seen it where people have also riveted the rope instead of using the cement.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
