Transmission assembly goop suggestions?

So what do you guys that build transmissions use when you reassemble the case to keep it from leaking all over the place, I thought about using black RTV but figured that might not work that well on a actual flat surface... Any Idea's?

Re: Transmission assembly goop suggestions?

the red sealant thats used between aluminum on transmissions is called anaerobic sealant.

Thanx, I knew there was something other than RTV, that worked better.

I've also used Gray RTV with good success in the 20+ something dsm transmission I've rebuilt over the years.
