J-B Weld 8277 WaterWeld Epoxy Putty Stick - 2 oz.

First off i do like the product, it seems to work and hold strong. I used it to cement/glue some rocks and wood together in my aquairum. After finishing it seems well put together to where i trust it with fish in the tank. But It was hard to get it to stay on the rock as it didnt want to get off my gloves that i used to apply it. That was the most difficult thing about the process and it easily stains objects like rocks, wood and potentially glass if you accidentally get it on them. I add to use some glue to add moss on the spots i used it and accidentally touched to hide it as it itself and its residue are noticeable.

I refurbish and repurpose cast iron cookware and pretty much anything that's cast iron because it's my passion. When my boss who owns a barn in Connecticut that was built in the 1700's found this out, he immediately thought it would be a fun challenge to start digging up old cast iron pots that he would find in the ground in his barn to bring to me to see what I could do to bring them back to life. The first project he gave me was an antique S&P Kettle pot. It was severely cracked on the bottom. When it comes to cast iron, you have to weigh your options and in this case it really wasn't worth having somebody weld it together for me because it could have created more damage because the crack was that severe. I felt because this wasn't going to be used for cooking and a great repurposing project, I consulted with my service managers because they work with these kind of materials and would know what kind of bonding agents in materials would be best to use that would be effective to do the job for these kind of projects. Because my job involves working with plumbing and cast iron and things of that nature, I knew that I was talking to probably some of the best resources. They recommended this product and I purchased two tubes from Amazon because I wasn't sure exactly how much of this stuff I was going to or needed to use. Sometimes it's always hard to tell from the picture on Amazon as opposed to what you get when you actually receive it in the mail. It is a putty type material and it is white. I only used one tube and not even close to half of it so a little goes a very long way! The putty works perfectly and it goes within the crevices that you needed to and you can shape it but you have to make sure you do it quickly before it dries because it does dry quickly as well which is great. I didn't want it to be perfect I shaved it enough to fill in the huge crack. Because it's white I knew I didn't have to make it look pretty because I knew I was going to be repainting the whole pot once the putty had dried. Before I did any painting, I did a test just to humor myself and I filled the pot with water. I have to say that no water left that pot anywhere and if I wanted to use the pot for just a planter at this point, I am incredibly confident that I could do that without any worries of leakage. So I have plenty of this left for the next time I come across a crackpot repurposing project and I'm excited with the fact that I have a product that is amazing and will definitely be able to use and it will work. So whether you're going to use this for plumbing needs, repurposing needs or whatever, not only is the price right, but this stuff is awesome. It does the job. Again though just to be clear, it is white and dries white so if Aesthetics are an issue for you, you should count on definitely painting over it with the color that matches the item that you're working on.

Normally this stuff works well and sticks to most anything. Did not work on my Fiberglass water tank the developed a leak. Sanded the spot. Cleaned with MEK.. applied JBWeld and 24 hours later filled the tank and the leak re appeared.

Didn’t believe this stuff was as good as JB Weld says. I was wrong I had a broken faucet in my RV because of it freezing. I applied this to the faucet and it worked holding water pressure in with no leaks at 50psi. Must have in your RV for quick repairs

works great, just as said

Purchased this to try to seal off a leaking PVC joint (1.5" ) on the return side of my pool equipment. I had low hopes as I've also tried a different brand of two part epoxy, but with the good reviews, thought maybe this was a superior product. After kneading it together, I applied it to the joint, completely surrounding the circumference of the joint and firmly pressing it in. Note that the joint (outside) was dry at the time. I let it cure for about 8 hrs (PHX, temp between 60-80 F during that time), and it was pretty thick as I used the entire tube, and was more of a brighter white (than off white). I pressed on the epoxy and it was "crusty" but still a bit pliable as I could push on the thicker parts. Once I turned the pump back on, the epoxy had not bonded to the PVC, and so the leak was not stopped. What is even worse was once the epoxy was damp again, it began to soften up even more and had no adhesion to the PVC anymore. Literally, I peeled it off like it was a casted mold. I can't imagine trying to get this product to set while under water. Maybe this is not specific to this brand and this product would work better on a different material, but on PVC piping, it was a complete waste of money.

Good

Ich habe den J-B WaterWeld Epoxyd-Kitt für meine Pool-Filteranlage benutzt, weil am Deckel ein Riss war und ständig Wasser austrat. Obwohl die Anleitung nicht auf Deutsch ist, war die Anwendung absolut selbsterklärend: Stück abschneiden, kneten, auftragen – fertig. Meine Erfahrung: Sehr einfache Anwendung, man braucht kein Vorwissen. Nach dem Aushärten absolut dicht – 100 % erfüllt, was ich mir erhofft habe. Ideal für Notfälle im Pool- oder Sanitärbereich. Wichtig zu wissen: Das Ergebnis sieht nicht unbedingt schön aus, eher wie ein grober Flicken. Wer Wert auf Optik legt, sollte das bedenken. Handschuhe sind Pflicht – das Material klebt stark und ist schwer von den Händen zu bekommen. Fazit: Der Kitt macht genau das, was er soll: abdichten. Für mich hat er ein teures Ersatzteil gespart. Klare Empfehlung für alle, die schnell und zuverlässig etwas reparieren wollen.

This worked very well at sealing a crack in the white plastic waste pipe from my gas boiler, it was dripping constantly, it can be a bit messy, next time I will wear gloves.

Muy bien adhesivo para pegar tazas y cosas así excelente

Just what I needed
