okay, case sealer again

I did a search and read all the threads I could find, but I still have a question. Whether I use loctite 574, 573 or 518, all the MSDS sheets say to apply as a continuous bead or screen printing.

Wayne recommends using acid brush to essentially paint a thin layer of 574 on the case half. Is this effectively "screen printing"?

Some people want to see some material squeeze out of the case and inside also. I would tend to follow manufacturer's instructions and just use a bead and assemble. I would not worry if there was no squeeze out. This is on a 92 C2 964 engine.

Thanks for any comments.
