Default Re: I found a crack in an odd place while pressure testing

Fordestes, I love that kind of solution. Mechanical but with the twist of the suction I really understand that it would work. I have seen way too many jb weld and marine tex repairs that didn't hold up due to poor prep work. If your vacuum could pull a blob into and just past the crack it would be a great repair for pressure pushing out. Gonna find me some belzona 1111!
