Default Copper sray gasket application

So do I spray this stuff on both sides of the oem honda tripple layer metal gasket?

It will seal alot better. I have used copper spray on used headgaskets and it sealed.

Yeah after having several HG probelms in the past, when I put it together this time I don't want any hickups. So a $5.00 can of insurance goes a long way.

Spray it on the head gasket with like 3 coats( both sides), that should be suffficient enough, no need to go spraying it on the block..
