    Looking for a durable sealant

    Zaino is the one thing mentioned here that I have experience with. Its durability always underwhelmed me and so I'm looking for better. Menzerna PowerLock and WGDGPS sound the best so far from what I reading. Ammo doesn't have enough of a following to make me comfortable paying that much...
