Head Gaskets

I have used the Cometic gaskets on my W8 motor and have reused them 3-4 times and never leaked.I spray a lite coat of copper coat on them.I have used the felpro 1102-1 on my W8 but dont like then imprint they leave on the head.I had to resurface the heads because of that.

I just put them on dry maybe thats why.
The only reason in going to comectics was going to a aluminum head.
