Title: Gasket material
Post by: Blazin on November 04, 2012, 07:27:31 am

Found this stuff at Auto Zone. I am very happy with it. $10 for the sheet.
Tin snips, a hole punch, and about ten minutes I had all the gaskets I needed for a Honda Accord exhaust. The gaskets to purchase for all of them were about $30.

Me either. There is a new manager at my local Auto Zone. He actually has a clue!

Was the stuff you found for exhausts only?  Seems like many years ago gasketing material was readily available and commonly used.  I used it to make my own carb gaskets, water neck gaskets and so forth.  I've still got a sheet somewhere.

This is exhaust only. I am guessing something sorta new as all the guys I know that do automotive had never seen or heard of it.
