Reddit mentions of J-B Weld 8277 WaterWeld Epoxy Putty Stick - 2 oz.

> pig putty

I jb weld'd a plastic gas tank for my lawn equip. idk the longevity of jb weld on a spot like that but marine epoxy or water weld can hold up on conditions for a semi-perm fix. This a common thing in the boat industry.

1. no, I live in MD and have a 60k gallon pool and never drain it all the way, my neighbors have large pools also and never completely drain them. It's a waste of water. Just drain it down below the return jet, plug the jet up and keep an eye on the level over the winter.
   
   
2. I don't know without seeing it, but painting a pool every year is beyond overkill. It's just not necessary, the cost and time involved are wasted.
   
   
3. I have used liquid rubber to seal leaks in the pump and plumbing but not for the pool itself. There are special products for things like that. I use JB Water Weld for repairing leaks in the gunnite. Use can use it underwater and from my experience it works well on small cracks.
   
   I suggest taking numerous pictures of the pool and take them to your local pool store, they can point you in the right directions. Also, maybe get with some of the people in the HOA and come up with a yearly plan for pool maintenance. Delegate someone to be in charge, and make sure that person becomes an expert in taking care of the pool.

Both really.... https://www.amazon.com/J-B-Weld-8277-WaterWeld-Epoxy/dp/B000BRQ0TW

I didn't even know they had what I just posted...you can probably use this and then use the piece in just a few minutes. There is all kinds of shit....find the best rated one. Lowes and Home Depot have it in stock I'm sure.

I know many people do not glue their rock. I'd just give it a nudge and make sure its still sitting stable every now and again when you are already in the tank.

Also, look into ways to glue the rock in an existing tank. I've seen people in videos glue rock with water, fish and all in the tank. I think they were using J-B's WaterWeld.

I understand. I also hate putting any new holes in a boat if I don't have to! After removal, I would fill the old holes. Probably just a little silicone would be enough to keep any water out of them. If you are never going to remove the cover plate, and you really hate the idea of putting more holes in your deck, you could just glue it down and not add screws. A strong marine adhesive like 3m 5200, or an industrial adhesive like E6000, would make a strong permanent bond.

Edit: Another option depending on what you find when you remove the old plate is to just fill the old holes with a good white epoxy and not put a plate on top. For stuff like this, I've been really happy with JB weld water weld putty

This worked great for me in a similar break

I made a manifold based on the John Palmer instructions. Here is my manifold and here are his instructions. If you can't solder just use JB Water Weld it's drinking water safe and can withstand high temps.

I get really consistent results 76-80% efficiency, and the manifold is really robust. Mine is over 10 years old and will never collapse.

*EDIT, whoops I didn't see that you already bought stuff. Nevermind.

What about this?

Thank you for actually answering. Do you think it would leave a residue on the cloths and would last for a long time?

Something like that?

Ding All is overkill for this repair. This is very easy to repair with Epoxy putty that is cheaper and just as durable (if not more) with this size ding. You can get it from a paddle/surf shop for $12 to $15 a tube or get the exact same thing from HomeDepot or Lowes for half the price under Loctite or JBWeld. I keep a tube with me whenever I go out for emergency repairs to keep it water tight.

BluePlanet has decent video showing how to do it. Their Ding Stick is the same stuff as above.

After it dries give the area some sanding. Start around 150 - 180 grit then finish ultra fine, like 220 grit or higher. I've used it a few times on a yellow Naish board, then hit the spot with some Krylon and it's hard to see the repair.

​

Hoses, Barbed hose splicer and clamps for cooling hose patches and bypasses (ie heater core failure).

Distilled water or premixed coolant.

Underwater Putty for emergency patches ie. radiator, diff, oil pan, etc.

Permatex make a gasket for those type of failures.


Edit: what type of rig are you driving?

Trust me.

Are either one of these the right product?

The water reservoir is made out of plastic (I believe), but the first one is specially for wet use and the second one is more geared towards different types of plastics moreso than the first one.

Not sure what to pick. What do you suggest?
