There is a new replacement for the wax ring on the market. It is a
plastic sorta pipe withi a couple flexible (sorta) flanges that inserts
down the floor flange fitting. glues to the toilet bottom but nothing
else is needed. I just replaced my toilet using one. It is one major
improvement over wax rings. Unfortunately, I do not recall the name of
it. My neighbor gave me one so I didn't even need to shop for it.
