Be careful about the silicon. Some of it will affect your SWR and will chemically affect your connection. Test a cured blob of it in your microwave and if it gets hot don't use it. Most of the urethanes work as well - Like Shoe goo or Goop. But.... test those too.
I used a clear silicon on my 432 antennas without testing them and ended up having to peel it all off - a time consuming job.
