can I use Clear Silicone instead of Plumbers putty on a garbage disposal? I live about 45 minutes from town and this is the only thing I have to put on it because it is leaking. If I can use this how soon do I need to replace it with plumbers putty if even at all?

It would help if you would tell us exaxctly where the leak is
Is it under the flange in the bottom of the sink or on the trap so on and so forth.
