Valve Cover Gaskets

So I cleaned off the (not so) old cork valve cover gaskets today and found that they had been attached via weatherstrip adhesive to the covers. At first I though this was an idiotic way to attach the gaskets, but the further I got in cleaning them off, the more I realized this was actually a pretty good way! I had purchased rubber gaskets so it seemed it might be even better with those. I used the Dremel to get the cover seal surface nice and clean, then smeared with my "elephant snot" 3M Weatherstrip Adhesive and presto! The gaskets are not going anywhere! Ran out of time so will have to finish next weekend.
