We have that stuff where I work as well as Snoop. I have used both and they both work great. They WILL NOT cause any damage. Lots of companies get nervous when you tell them you are using thier products for aircraft maintenance purposes.

FYI: water mixed with a fairly high concentration of liquid dish soap works well. You will need to use you're fingers and "spread" the solution around a bit over the seams to eliminate the large bubbles, then wait and watch the small bubbles to see if they become larger and burst. We are making a huge science project out of something really simple . When you give it a try you will figure it out very quickly

Legend has it that Chuck Slusarczyk's CGS Aviation often became "Chuck's Garden Supplies" when buying 6061 aluminum "irrigation tubing" by phone.

Looking through the paperwork on a bipe I own you can see where the builder's invoices started showing him as a toy manufacturer...

Snoop is not only awesome but it is cheap too. Find a local air systems supply company. They usually sell swagelok fittings when u are looking for them. Snoop comes in an 8 oz bottle with a handy long tube to apply it for about 4 dollars a bottle. I bought two but only used partof one.
