I am curious as to what people think, or if they have used that for anything like sealing something.

I want something cheap, soft, and not adhesive like glue. I also thought to use some black RV permatex gasket maker. Would be less adhesive than a caulk, but it still can stick pretty hard things together.

I don't see the need to go super seal, as in glue on this thing. Port hole is on the cabinside away from the water. Mostly all it will get wet from is rain. It is going in the head, there is not an opening port window in the head.

My mirror in the head desilvered, and I had this brass porthole of about 12 inch width. So I took it to a glass shop and they put in a mirror, So it will serve as a mirror and also can be opened, there is a screen to keep out bugs.
