Proper instructions for installing the Rutland gasket with Permatex Copper high temp sealant.

Options
I just recently  purchased Rutland Gaskect ( 5/8"  7' long) along with the permatex Copper high temp sealant. I plan on following the instructions on  the TNW site for cleaning the egg, but I have not found proper instructions on installing the Rutland Gasket with the permatex. Can someone point me in the right direction for these instructions or send them to me? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    To date I have sold 1,160 of the proper sized Rutland gaskets to people in 42 states and 11 foreign countries. I don't make a profit on them like ACE or Amazon does but I get a kick out of helping people with how to install it properly so it will last for years. Those instructions on TNW site is an out of date summary from my 2 pages of detailed instructions written way back when using the crappy Rutland adhesive instead of the Permatex Ultra Copper I have recommended using for years now. BTW I hope you are planning to put that 7 foot on a large as it isn't long enough for an XL. Oh well - send me a PM and I'll answer your questions...BTW how much did you pay for your gasket kit?
