I've not but its worth having in the tool bag for when that moment when the tank busts or you get a major leak, It would give you some thinking time,

Never seen it and if it was any good the council lads would have vans full of it - so I feel it's another Facebook scammer at work.

I don't think its a scam, I saw it on that tele sales channel ideal World, They usually do a 30 day money back guarantee  |

I know it gets a lot reviews but its very expensive. If you read the comments on that youtube video there is one guy that says this: It's not worth the money for its performance at all. It's only good as a sealant....its all marketing. don't believe everything you see...snag lis creator. You might think its harsh, just a moan. But when you buy a box of the stuff and use it you think. What a waste of money....Which the people who did the video said "I agree" to . There must be other sealants that would pass that cup test? I reckon most of them given there is no pressure there.... |

there used to be an old trick that we older people remember, putting an egg into a leaking car radiator to fix a small leak, It had limitations but did work,  |

another miracle leak cure on screwed pipe work is ' slating' the pipe. Its a cheeky little trick when a iron pipe is weeping on a joint, get a small bit of slate and ram it in the thread where the weep is, that will stop the drip, then a wipe with a cloth paint it with black hammerite, grab the money and go, tail light guarantee only, When your tail light is out of view, the guarantee is expired,  |

Any tricks/tips/tapes/compounds for temp repair on iso valves that weep after you switch back on? The slotted head type.

they're basterds for that, the only thing to do is twiddle them and hope, changing is the best option
