RTV Silicone failed me again!

I have not had any good luck using RTV on any plastic tops. I havent had this problem untill recently when my chipset block leaked a few months ago, then just last night my pelt block leaked and luckily both times everything survived.

Has anyone else had any problems with it? I am using normal clear RTV silicone.

I also opened my gpu block up wich has a little more surface area of bonding and I can see that it looks like the silicone has started to be eaten through and is discolored on the innar edge.

This is mainly a advisory to be careful when using this stuff with plastic tops, I have used it with metal tops with no problems in the past.
