RTV Silicone Gasket Maker by Color

Which RTV gasket maker goes where — high heat, oil, coolant, vibration — and a correction on what RTV can and cannot replace.

Status

The pin lists head gaskets and catalytic converters under copper RTV; that is wrong, since RTV is not a head-gasket or catalytic-converter repair and those parts use their own gaskets (corrected here). Color coding is a brand convention, not a standard: read the label for the temperature and fluid rating. The pin itself is marked illustrative.
