The skills you possess in doing the task has a large bearing on how tight the seal will be as well as using the correct materials. Even still it won’t be as tight as it was new even Apple won’t guarantee there repairs either.

Hi Dangsanity, No I wouldn't necessarily trust the aftermarket seals or anything that isn't manufactured in the original factory, however many adhesive seals like B-7000 are marketed for water-proofing and adhesive bonding. Let me know if this helps!
