This product really is the Dogs' when it comes to engine building. It is a non-hardening jointing compound, which is fine with higher temperatures making it suitable for the vast majority of applications on both classic and modern, air cooled and water cooled motorcycle engines and gear boxes. It was originally developed by Rolls Royce and is now made under licence. It is in its element for joining the crankcases where there is not usually a gasket. It doesn't block oilways and is easy to use. We usually paint it on with cheap artists paint brushes which we buy from the cheapo supermarkets.
Especially with classic bikes, we tend to paint all mating surfaces with Wellseal, even when using gaskets. We even use it on head gaskets. It is a bit belt and braces, but you're far less likely to get an oil leak if you apply Wellseal as well as the gasket.
Sorry about the increase in cost - the manufacturers have just made a huge increase to us 😢

Really quick delivery and a great addition when rebuilding bluespots.
Quality item, so much better than generic kit you can get on line. Repeat customer, says it all.
Fantastic done the job thank you
I hate changing tyres, but this stuff made the job much easier.
I broke the bead on the old tyre then applied the paste with a paint brush. Ten year old Bridgestone slid off easily and the new Heidenau, with very stiff sidewalls, was fitted much more easily than when I’d tried with washing-up liquid.
After having struggled trying to set the pilot air screws on my Suzuki’s carb’s - I saw this recommended in Classic Motorcycle Mechanics and it is an excellent piece of kit and well made too.
Excellent quality, first time I’ve used ‘ball-ended’ they were so much more adaptable when trying to access restricted spaces. Well worth it !
The right length, the right colour and with crocodile clips on the ends...
Made the whole job so much easier, using the proper tools for the job gives you a sense of a job well done.
