[Boatanchors] Antenna Sealing, thanks all. Another question. . ."Liquid Tape"

[Phil]

First I want to thank those who took the time to answer my "Antenna 
Sealing" questions concerning sealing "joints" on a Tram 1481 3 section 
2M/440 antenna.  It seems that at least SOME RTV products are to be 
avoided.  Now I have another question.

After thinking about it, I thought of something I saw at Harbor 'Fright' 
quite some time ago.  That is, Liquid Tape.

It seems that IF I first used good quality black electrical tape, then 
sealed it with one of the following products I would end up with a GOOD 
seal that could be removed by slitting through both the liquid and 
plastic tape with a knife then peeling it off.  NOT sure how easily 
liquid tape applied directly to the joint without regular tape under it 
could be removed.

It might seem like I'm going to extremes here, but like I said in the 
first email, once I put it up, I want to leave it up.  At 72 it's 
getting a little bit harder to easily work with antennas 'solo'.

Here are a couple different products that might be suitable, one from 
Harbor 'Fright', the others from Amazon. . .  I have an HF store in 
town, but if one of the Amazon products are doable I might go that 
route, though I'd have to wait till next week to order it.

As a side note, I thought I might get a can of the Liquid Tape "Spray" 
and spray the bottom of the bottom mast section where it will be buried 
in the ground about a foot.  Hopefully that would prevent the buried 
part from "rotting" (rusting etc).
