Just bought and applied Ultra Copper Max to fix a finnicky exhaust header leak on my '03 Camry 2.4L. New Fel-pro gasket failed to seal properly and a new MLS gasket blew out after 2 months. I'm really hoping this liquid gasket does the trick. I followed the directions to a T, perfectly clean mating surfaces, assembled immediately hand-tightening header bolts, torqued to spec after waiting an hour, now waiting 24 hours before starting the vehicle. Fingers crossed...

As a mechanic, I can say you should only sell the right stuff to a mechanic that stuff is damn near impossible to get off sometimes very impressive stuff

Can I use this to go along with the actual exhaust manifold gasket?

Will the regular high temp red work for exhaust manifold?
