I don't know if anyone says for certain that it is fully effective. The successful RACS 15GP22 rebuild now on display at ETF was sealed with frit material, not vacseal. However, if/when you decide to remove the CRT, realize that just this year it was learned that the HV flange is extremely susceptible to edge damage; the flange can be the point of a leak. John Yurkon, Bob Galanter, and John Folsom did the work. Take care not to bang the flange edge into something.
