I used just enough cover the gasket, so the whole thing is copper looking, dont put so much on that it starts dripping but enought to cover both sides. GM MLS gaskets or Cometics?

I installed them w/ copper spray, under the pressure they are put under it doesnt matter, but it seems to be an insurance policy in a way...do it to make sure that baby is sealed.

i sprayed my cometics, and after a few thousand miles i tore all down, and i noticed that the cometics started to eat into the heads, not good. my machine shop told me that its a common problem when people spray the cometics with copper spray, he said install dry, with a good flat surface.
