Need some quick replys, FLEXSEAL?
 

OK you Phil Swift fans,anybody here use this stuff? I am the type, believe half of what you hear and see, Anybody have any experiences with this?

I ask cause for months I have put off a very slow drip on a elbow cast iron drain pipe, in the corner of my basement by the floor drain.I can fix this much cheaper than a plumber. Well I'm still down but when I get out I can supervise my grandson or III on how to do it while present with on of them.

Anybody think of something that will work for a month or maybe longer?

it really good just put some layers on it wait 24 hours and you are set.

So you have used this before on something?

I question the hold with a rusty cast iron pipe,right in the bottom of the elbow?

24 hrs to dry?

cut the offending section off,


use two of these types but for the right diameter of pipe:

(you can even get ones with reducer to go from old to new if theyre different sizes)




and then cut a section of new pipe, and make a new elbow ... (you could even use plastic like pex or ABS) to fit the gap, and use those rubber clamps to hold it in place

I'd probably just glue one together with ABS and glue...



probably last years

Amazon reviews are pretty solid:

OK gang, after much searching and reviews, Flex Seal will not hold. You cannot get it clean enough to hold.

Plumbers Plastic Epoxy, got some from the local plumbing and hardware store is designed to supply temp hold on a nasty looking pipe until proper changes can be made.

FlexTape is your answer

If it can hold a boat that's been sawed in half it can hold what you need it too... WooHoo!!!

I cut my yacht in half to see if it works. It does as advertised!

Fixing your home using this crap is just wrong. Get a reciprocating saw and the right blade and cut out the elbow, Build a new one with Sch.40 and FernCo adapters and forget about it

Not the repair, just the yacht....

If you're going to waste your money, you may as well send it to me instead. Either way, you're getting nothing in return

Had a leak in a outdoor pond waterfall , slapped on a piece of flex tape ,filled with water good as new....... been 1 month underwater..still good

I'm pretty sure he just wants to use it until he's able to fix it himself
