Another head gasket ???

[Harker]

Just got the new head gasket for my 92-95 2 cyl 30-35hp motor. This one is a Sierra and is shuny and a but tacky. Are these made to go on without gasket sealer? The manual says to lightly coat the gasket but I was wondering if sealer would mess up one that doesn't require it??

The ones with shiny coating do not need, nor should you use, sealer. The shiny coating is sealer.
