We use it as a first layer stretching it three times across the
connector. It helps to remove potential air pockets and makes the second

The rule is to never stretch the last 2 winds of the tape as you put
it on... and ALWAYS *CUT* the tape, never rip it. Ripping implies

pvc, teflon, or other

Do NOT use silica gel!!! it absorbs the water.. then releases it when the
pressure changes or temp changes. (I know this because I flooded a sealed
jbox with water by doing this!)
Drill a weep-hole in the lowest part of your gear, mount things high in
larger than normal boxes so the water can
Coax seal.

We quit using monkey snot (andrews mastic) a few years ago and started
using the self-vulcanizing tape, often called plumbers tape, on everything.
