    Except it's made with toluene so not food safe. I wouldn't use it on a coffee mug

    Silicone is one of the few sealants that will be food safe.

    It's just to secure the liner to the outer shell. The interior of the mug is not going to be smeared with sealant. And the toluene evaporates as the sealant dries and cures.

    No. The sealant is at the interface which will come in contact with the user's mouth.

    If that's the case, then Lexel is out. I've never seen one of those mugs and am not familiar with the details.
