Could I use this product to fix a crack in a fiberglass water softener tank?

Yes this is good too repair anything fiberglass.Although if it just just a small crack i would just buy the fiberglass resin and cover the crack with a couple thin coats of the resin and it will seal it up

I think this can work on a fiberglass tub IF the tub does not flex too much as the clamp is tightened. Mine wasused on a standard cast iron tube, so the clamping was certain.

No, I don't believe so. The hole is fairly small - the system uses pressure to force the epoxy into the crack. Just be sure to read the directions before you begin, there are some that are vital, but you can easily glance over. I used this repair kit on my windshield and was very satisfied.

Yes, it should work very well. I used the kit to repair a cracked fiberglass bathtub.

It is not designed to fix cracked glass (if that was your question). Its purpose is to fill in around windshield trim to prevent water leaks. I also used it to repair leaks around some oval windows (called "opera windows") on the roof of a conversion van. It works quite well and can be done, outside when the weather is day and above freezing.

If the crack is all the way through your tank, I believe you would need to use waterproof cement/glue first to prevent any leakage. I think this product could be used on the outside to cover up the crack so that it is not seen, but just for cosmetic purposes. I don't think this will seal any leak. It kinda' reminds me of what Liquid Paper does to unwanted marks on paper, except this covers up stuff on porcelain. I used it on my gas stove and it eventually came off, just like the original finish did. I believe it's supposed to be for high heat areas, but I'm not so impressed with it for what I got it for.

I would say yes. I have used it on a fiberglass sailboat and it stuck like iron. Warning. Mix a good dollop When you try to mix a tiny amount it doesn't harden well. It is a 1-1 mix which is easy but the cure time is long which is typical with strong epoxys. If I were you I would clean clean clean the crack and then clean again with acetone. Then use this or even better ( but more expensive). Marine tex white epoxy. Good luck.

Sorry, I have no idea on that...from my experience with crap/chip fills there are some tools (to prep the work area) you would need that don't come with this kit but the silicone is probably the same. If it is just a crack around the seal edge I would say yes but if it is a crack in the middle, probably not.

Absolutely. POR-15 is fully compatible with fiberglass and can be used to repair cracks in gelcoat. It will adhere better than polyester resin and has greater strength. Use also with fiberglass cloth to make super-strong surfaces in rusted-out areas. But be aware that POR-15 doesn't contain styrene and thus cannot melt fiberglass cloth like polyester resin does.

Yes!! We just put a bag and a half of the salt for water softeners that you can buy at a hardware store. It worked really well. I believe you need to have a special salt-water pump, though, which Intex sells. Trying to use salt water with a normal pump might cause damage.

Hi Doug,I'm pretty certain it won't hurt the fiberglass in any way. The problem will be to have the stains exposed to a solution of super ironout for a long enough period of time for it to work completely. I principally use it to clean iron stains off of mineral specimens. I soak the specimens in a warm super ironout solution from 2 hours to overnight, depending.Good luck,Steve C.

I have not used it on fiberglass, but several coats 30 minutes apart should fill in the hole.

Yes, I used it on a pinhole and crack I had in my hot water supply line. The instructions on the boxes only mention water supply on the 4 inch wrap so it would be best to use that. I used the 2 inch because the area in which I was doing the repair was very tight and ultimately I intend it be temporary since I have no idea how long it will last.

Not at all, I used it on mine. I will caution you, however, to make sure you keep the rotation of the drill slow and don't linger in one spot too long. It can cause damage if you are not really careful, but I will say my fiberglass tub has never been cleaner. Just take your time and work slowly until you get a feel for the use of the drill brush..awesome product!

Honestly I don't think so. Most fiberglass fuel tanks have to be replaced with a new one. I could be wrong but I suggest more research.

I would give it a try. I used it successfully underwater to repair a large crack. Under water it acts a lot like drywall mud. I used a small taping knife to apply and worked it into the concrete. The product did shrink a little when it cured.

Not sure. I used it to apply kevlar skid plates to my royalex canoe. I had deep gouges but no cracks. Good luck.
