I have an RV. The RV kitchen has a double plastic sink of unknown material (it's translucent plastic, thin, and probably the cheapest low-bid available). I need to replace the current sink basket strainers (which are bar sink size).
The old pot metal basket strainers are sealed with butyl putty. Butyl is a good sealing material for many RV applications, as it remains sticky and soft. And when used under basket strainers, it continues to ooze out and make a mess; the loss of the butyl that squeezes out from the joint eventually causes the joint to leak.
I have two new stainless steel basket strainers. What sealant do I need to use between the underside of the basket strainer lip and the inside surface of the plastic sink?
