Title: Split tank
Post by: rich fraser on June 18, 2015, 11:33:12 pm

Has anyone had to reseal a split tank? I have a 500 litre baffled tank and it has split in the middle of one of the two baffles. It has split on the seam about half inch. I've tried silicone but this only lasts a couple of days at best. Any suggestions please?

Tiger Adhesive is virtually indestructible, non-silicone and will cure under water.

That's the stuff.

Back in the eighties we used to glue bodykits onto cars with the it !
It's very good for reattaching trim that's fallen off as it has tremendous grip from a very small surface area.
