A up Tom, I've been watching your latest hit videos over on youtube and I have a pipe sealant hack myth/ challenge that you my be able to de-bunk.
I have heard on good authority that you can use bubble-gum as a pipe thread sealant to get you out of a pinch, and it will take 250 bar plus!
Can you make a video and prove this to be true or BS please?
Many thanks,
Clart ._.

I remember a pipe fitter once told me that if you grind some slate into a powder then mix it with water into a paste it will seal threads on steam pipes.
I've never tried it or heard this from anyone/anywhere else since.

I've heard the term ' slating ' a joint, i asked what it was he said, " if you get a weep on an iron threaded joint, knock a little bit of slate in the weeping bit, the little bit of slate expands and cures it" I've never tried it, YET,  |

If it leaks, say air, it'd blow a bubble.
