There have been discussions here and on other forums about Hylomar. I happen to love the stuff and remain puzzled as to why it seems to be hard to find at times given that is such a great product. I believe that there was an article in the most recent Austin-Healey USA Healey Magazine by Roger Moment that articulated the differences between the advanced formula solvent free Hylomar versus the Racing Formula Hylomar, and I certainly agree with Roger that for most of our applications the advanced formula, solvent free variety is what you want. At my local car parts stores the racing formula was available, but no one had the advanced formula.

Anyway, those who have worked with this stuff know that it is a gooey mess. Many of you may have known, but I just discovered that Pegasus Racing Supplies sells the stuff in an 8 ounce can with an applicator brush that I found to be much handier than the squeeze tubes. If you look at the Pegasus web site, it is part number 3318.

Just thought you might want to know if you did not already!
