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 it's 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.
We don't tend to recommend the tubes as once opened, the stuff escapes out of the top and all over the shelf it's stored on - no idea why and loads of the stuff is sold in tubes. We prefer the tins which are far easier to use. We'll sell you tins or tubes - your choice!
Sadly the manufacturer of this product has stopped supplying the tins. We have explained our experiences to makers of this fine product and they will hopefully take our comments on board - watch this space!

Let customers speak for us
Quality product, fast service. Biker’s toolbox my first stop shop.
Nice tool kit,shipping a little dear -USA. Still nice.
Everything I’ve bought from here has been good quality at a reasonable price and delivered promptly 👍
Had a great conversation regarding my z900 rebuild,very informative
The device worked perfectly monitoring a battery issue that turned out to be due to a newly installed third party entertainment unit. It made it so simple to see what was going on. Worth every penny. I’m sure it will prove invaluable on my bike.
Quick efficient service supplying quality goods 👌
Perfect..
I asked advice from Ralph,before purchase.
I needed a specific set of circlip pliers.
He knew exactly what I needed for the job. They were Perfect.
Job done.
They are smaller than I thought they would be, but they have the levereage and cutting power of anything bigger. An asset to the toolbox, thanks.
It sprays chemicals from its bottle and doesn't leak. It comes in a handy plastic bag and as I bought four, some will be clean until I use them.
It comes in a clever box, with the software separate. The instructions are clear and precise, and I'll be using it in a week or so on my GPZ900r.
Very pleased - the best wiring connections I've ever achieved for my bike
