Hello, 

 
Not really a Kiel related question, but I was hoping somebody

Rubber gasket?&lt;br /&gt;
Grease?&lt;br /&gt;
Epoxy?&lt;br /&gt;
Polyurethane?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
Thanks for your replies. Unfortunately my case is of the cheapest
plastic you can find in any department store (I don&amp;#39;t feel like
making the investment, I don&amp;#39;t even know if the product will fulfill
its purpose fully. Maybe later if it proves itself!). Any idea how to
seal the casing will be most welcome...&lt;/p&gt;

Could you use a clear top Pelican case, and not drill a hole? Or
clear topped project box, which is suitably IP rated?&lt;/p&gt;
