100% correct it fills any indentations etc that might cause the gasket not to seal..

that guy was talking about a composite oem like the one for 88-91 civics, they were not metal. anything 92+ I believe is metal oem

I just did a head gasket, I sprayed 3 coats on both sides...hope it was enough...
