great ,the original paper gasket is pretty flimsy .I would imagine if you find an NOS old rebuild kit, the gasket in it wll be decayed ,
the liquid gasket material has to be applied pretty carefully as the sealing area is physically narrow and theres holes to not plug up.youll get the great slap slap ,and a park feature ,the valve on the steering colomb can be turned 1/2 way to get a slower speed .
interestingly now that I think of it my rebuild was about 1 yr ago and now the wiper is a bit slow to get going first thing now .I wonder if the silicone grease was a bad idea ?,I havent relubricated it and never did figure aout a way to lubricate the posts that go through the firewall that the wiper arms pivot on
