I disassembled and cleaned my inflator valve and am getting ready to reinstall it in my drysuit. Should I use Aquaseal on between the rubber seal and the plastic inflator vlave body? I've seen it done both with sealer and without on how to videos. I'm assuming it should be sealed. It looks like the last person who did it used a silicone sealer rather than an Aquaseal type glue. Any suggestions?
 
It should seal without it, if you want that extra measure then an RTV sealant (aquarium, bath sealant) can do it and be easily removed.
