How well does this product resist gasoline?

Not sure about gas but, it does amazing with oil. I used to replace gasket on the front of my air compressor after having several other brands leak.

I believe it would work in the short term but would not rely on it as a permanent fix as the gas will degrade the silicone over time. Visit the permatex FAQ page for more details. They recommend Form-a-Gasket products for gasoline environments.

It is NOT recommended for gasoline. See the manufacturer's Technical Data Sheet (TDS) on their web page. http://www.permatex.com/products-2/product-categories/gasketing/gasket-makers/permatex-ultra-copper-maximum-temperature-rtv-silicone-gasket-maker-detailThey do offer other products for gasoline seals.

It's made for 'alchohol' ; I use methanol. Petrol or gasoline would probably create a lot of soot; also toxic fumes.

Sorry, I have no idea. I haven't used mine yet because it is unsuited for transferring caustic liquids. Your newsprint idea sounds reasonable except that gasoline would still soak through and smell like, well, gasoline - not the same as Chanel #5 or Brut. It seems unlikely that any container would be able to keep that odor in unless hermetically sealed. Not sure it's worth the cost.Hope you have success in resolving this. I'd be glad to hear about it when you do.

It is a fuel additive ,so if it is sealed tightly it should be good fo a fairly long time.Otherwise it will evaporate and not be any good.

It is resistant but it needs a completely dry surface to bond properly and I wouldn't use it on fuel systems myself, extra cautious. That being said I love this stuff, it's expensive but works better that anything else I've tried.

I believes it is better suited for other applications. My experience, a lot more volatile chems and high Pressure washer on hot day is best for that issue! No expert, just my experienced!

This thing is made of nylon. It's heavy duty but NOT to be used with gasoline. Use stainless steel with viton gasket. I think u.s. solid has them.

To help you out I sprayed some on a strip of white pine. I held it over the gas burner on my stove. It offers some protection. Just how long it would hold up, I don't know? Lee

gasoline starts to break down very quickly.... it will form a vanish and lose it's usibility pretty quickly ... like a few months.. adding this after a year is not going to help.. it say's right on it must be used with fresh gas

yes to all of your questions, heard that this product is used by the military. It is highly recommended by people I know. They say it can be used to store gas for years without going bad. Also can rejuvenate bad gas from reviews I've seen. I've only been using it for 6 months so far with no complaints. Highly concentrated formula compared to other products that are similar

I use it for gas and it holds well. I don't know if it rusts with water or not in the long run, but it holds liquid gasoline.

It should pump gasoline well but I CANNOT recommend it. This pump uses an electric drill for power and electric drills produce sparks. Just look through the ventilation slits in the drill housing while the drill is running and you can see them easily. Fumes could be drawn into the drill and the results could be devastating! I would certainly NOT use it for gasoline.

I wouldn't, this is a strong solvent and the sending unit for the gas level changed a bit when I used the product. Use this product with 4 gallons of fuel no more.

I haven't but it should work, it is listed as nonflammable and its primary function is to ensure proper contact and keep corrosion down so it should do the job.
