I have not had good results from any liquid tape.  After a brief period of 
sunshine it peels loose and allows water.  Even as you describe it didn't 
work well.

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.


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).
