Winterizing toilet??
When winterizing, do you leave the pink stuff in the toilet bowl?? I've read the seals need to stay wet, but will the pink stuff damage them? Will it stayin the toilet bowl punk?

Whichever RV antifreeze you choose, just drain it all out after you put it through your system.
Why would you need to leave it in the water lines , pump and fixtures once you have put it through to protect them ? At that point, the antifreeze has diluted any residual water left in the system , just get rid of it once it has done its job and you won't have to worry about any taste come spring.
If you choose to do it this way, then lubricate the seal separately .

That is an interesting thought flushing it out immediately. However Glycol Antifreeze does not dilute (strictly speaking) it displaces water, they do not mix. I don't know if it is a me thing, a north thing or a Canadian thing, but when we regularly get double digit negatives, sometimes for a week or more at a stretch, it is nice to know that the antifreeze will displace any left over water that may be lurking somewhere that blowing out or flushing out did not catch. We usually do not have access to a dump again until our first spring trip anyway so no rush to get rid of it.
