    Sensor Safe Silicone

    G'day! I'm going to be fitting a safari Snorkel this weekend and the instructions refer to a Sensor Safe Silicone. What the hell is this and can I get it from Bunnings? I've got plenty of roof and gutter silicone but there is no reference to "Sensor Safe" on the packet.

    they usually use a urethane based sealant such as sikaflex and it is available at bunnings and most good plumbing places or higher end auto parts places like bursons etc
