In days gone by when you were working with what was called STEEL SHIM head gasts You had best be usen something and Aluim. Paint was one of them . then copper coat came along first in a can with a dobber then in Spray form , As of now i can be one of them OLD Farts that can clam 60 years this summer of working and building engines and some being few on here have ever seen and have built from mild to wild . Back when Hecktor was a puppy and he died 40 years ago we had a small touch up spray gun that had Aluim. paint in it just for spraying head gskt. as it was faster then dobbing on Copper coat at the shop , out in the field or job site ya made a big mess dobbing on the copper coat . Some Mfg.'s gskts are better then others , some say not to use a sealent and others say nothing . on them i SPRAY .
