I am personally fond of water glass (sodium silicate) as a sealant because I have never seen in fail once the impregnation process is complete. It has no temperature or solubility issues that I know of.

I'd seen some mention that water glass doesn't play well with aluminum due to different rates of expansion.
Any thoughts on that?

thanks,

Karen,

Your concern is well founded, but at Imtermet (RIP), it was applied as a water-weight viscosity and vacuum impregnated. Then the excess was blown off all the exposed surfaces. This part was the timing gear cover for the inline 6 International engines. Intermet finally lost the contract and filed.
