I also, don't understand the pro seal trailing edges. I had no problem
getting strait trailing edges without any sealant. I did the empennage
surfaces about 18 months ago, and just finished the last one, the right
flap, just followed instructions and routed a flush spot in the table top
for my back riveting plate and made sure the table was straight.
the only place I used any sealant so far other than the tanks was on the
foam ribs for the trim tab, and I used a marine waterproof bedding compound
that I had around.
By the way, I might be a little warped, I did not think the pro seal was so
bad on the tanks. Just a little tedious.

Another point to consider is that the factory trailing edges allow water
to escape and some amount of air circulation to keep corrosion in check.
Plenty of builders have accomplished thier TE's without goop.

Use caution using RTV. Regular RTV releases acetic acid which will coorode
aluminum and steel. If you must, use the blue RTV this will not harm the
metal.
