Title: Food Grade/Safe High Temperature Silicone Sealant ?
Post by: Greg2013 on March 09, 2014, 08:40:13 PM
Looking for some food grade high temp resistant silicone sealant for some applications around the kitchen,only need one tube, a friend passed the link below on to me and though it is high temp i don't think it is food grade which is a must. ::)

Look for it in a pet shop. Its used in fish tanks, and must be free of chemicals since fish are very sensitive and would be killed by builders silicone.

Cheers for that, and i do believe we have a "fishy affiliate" here somewhere  ;D

Had a look on seahorse aquariums site and they do have some, unfortunately it does not say if it is high temperature resistant. :)

You can use bathroom sealant to fix the rope on the door of your wood burning stove, not a lot of people know that.
