Default RTV Silicone And Coax Outer Jacket: Safe ?

Hello:

Is it safe to use the typical GE RTV silicones against a Polyethylene
(PE) coax outer jacket ?

I know the RTV's use some type of acid (acetic ?) to cure the stuff,
and I was wondering if anyone might have any first hand experience if
there is any kind of interaction with a coax outer jacket ?


For temporary use black electrical tape. For permanent used the self
sticking sealing tape from Radio Shack and other outlets.
