Real helpful guys.:(

I bought some but haven't used it, sorry.:rolleyes:

[craig 75]

used it often in emergency situations ,
4 wd oil filter got hit by a rock removed and cleaned and filled
diesel fuel tank neck broken off rejoined to tank

the best way to repair anything is with correct materials,but this stuff is good and no reason not to leave it permanent, if its not a safety issue,

main thing with any thing like this is clean the item very well
:U:)

Well it goes a bit like this:

There is a product with a specific purpose and a range of uses that is so wide that I can't begin to imagine what the intended use is.

It has some pretty clear instructions about its use, isn't cheap, and is used for all manner of emergency and in a broad range of permanent solutions too or even making castings and filling in bits of broken crockery.

If the question was a bit more helpful, then the answers could be a bit more specific!

Maybe if the Learner had read the directions and had a question relating to its use, it'd be a bit easier to make sense of the question.

At the same time, may I have the temerity to ask how helpful is a response like
"I bought some but haven't used it?":((

Why did you buy it? Does it have a shelf life? How long have you had it? What are you thinking of using it for? What alternatives did you consider?

If you were going to fill a hole in brickwork, I'd ask why not use plaster, if you were going to join a couple of copper pipes I ask why not use solder, if you were going to fill a hole in a boat while it was underwater, I'd suggest using a different product.

The question didn't imply that any advice was needed, it was simply a poll of whose used it.

Cheers,
