I just made several heat sticks using JB Weld and the design that keeps the Jb Weld inside the chrome and off your beer. My question is, why do so many of us use JB Weld instead of RTV Silicone?
Just about all the tutorials for heat sticks discuss JB Weld. It's considered non toxic and probably is, but the RTV silicone is actually FDA approved for food usage, is heat resistant, and seems to me like it's be waaaay easier to use in a build. You could easily pour it in over your connections, instead of having to thin JB Weld and try and pour it in.
Who out there is using RTV silicone? Why are so many of us using JB Weld instead? I'm sure my heat sticks will be fine, but the RTV silicone seems to be a much better idea.
I'd like to hear from anyone using RTV. Thanks.
