Most silicone sealants are indeed acid curing. The acetic acid cure is that distinct smell most silicones have. But, there are non-acid curing silicones. Permatex ultra black is one of them.

The non-acid curing thing is often mentioned by three piece wheel manufacturers. I guess they don't like the acid on the 6061 aluminum wheel shells?
