QUOTE: Originally posted by gmpullman Personally, I haven't found much use for silicone RTV on a layout. Some of the silicone compounds resist paint. however, I do recall a use for silicone RTV to mount light poles, signals and sign posts. Drill a slightly larger mounting hole, partially fill it with the RTV and stick your pole centered in the hole. After it cures you have a "flexible" mount that can withstand an occasional bump without snapping off the pole... otherwise just use RTV to caulk the tub surround...
