First off, Im no expert at all, But Id imagine you would not want to seal it. Sealing might not make it sit level and lead to leaks later on. Might want to ask mike or bud on here tho as well. They really know their stuff!

Yep----use silicone if the old flange is clean or plumbers putty if it is not---Packing the flange joint,before installing the toilet, with some wax from a spare ring will also work.---Mike---

Mike,

Thanks a lot. The old flange is very dirty. I tried to clean it, but it did not work very well. So, I'll use plumbers putty. Or, I have couple of spare wax rings and I may use wax from one of them instead of plumbers putty as well.

Igor.
