want a nice smooth finish on your bead of silicone? Use your finger with a generous coating of spittle. Water will work too but spit is frequently more accessible and gives a better finish (IMO anyway)
need some high temperature RTV? Try instant gasket - good to about 300C, will take the cold (to about -50C), comes in small tubes so you don't waste 80% of it, and different colours if that matters.
I've used this stuff and it is pretty resistant to sun and salt too. I've one exposed joint in a marine environment which has lasted > 10 years (which reminds me I must check it again ....)
