    There is the danger of having gaps as material is sanded/polished away because the inside still has to accommodate the bearings and seal housings that were in side. The most common leaks are where the spaghetti seal butts against the rear bearing & seal housing. The ends MUST be cut perfectly square . . . I find this is most easily done with the seal out of the L/U and flat on the workbench, using a very sharp X-acto knife. I trust everyone knows the Marprox Sealer 1000 has been replaced by Scotch Grip 847
