I've been playing with this stuff for about 6 months now and it's great. it's a puddy that you can mold into any shape, bond just about anything together, it's waterproof, heat resistant, remains flexible (at least as long as i've been using it), strong, and comes in a ton of colors that you can combine to color match. I've used it to patch plastic, custom make rubber parts, fix cracks, stop rattles, remold the rubber doodads on sunglasses, make custom chair cushions so they won't scratch floors, make custom hand grips for things that hurt my fingers, re-seal old hard to find fittings on my boat, re-enforce old plastic parts... the list is endless. It's great if you're like me and reluctant to drilling into fiberglass but want to mount something. So far I've been able to bond something and remove it without drilling or damaging gelcoat. But you should test it before committing. this takes rescue tape to a whole new level. Mold it, let it cure overnight and you're good to go.

I'm still waiting on my Makerbot you recommended... Ordered it 3 months ago...

Are these things real or do you just recommend stuff and take our cash and run?
 
That's some pretty cool stuff if it does what it says it does. and for 14 bucks what do you have to loose? Nice score Turtle...
 
I take your cash and use it to fund my 72' gasser.

Pyro, please reduce the size of your signature picture. It makes viewing on the iPad hard and is way too large for a signature pic.

Thanks!

On it Ken, Sorry about that man...

Perfect! Thanks, it makes it easier when reviewing a thread you have posted in. It can actually be a little larger, it just can't get larger than the screen otherwise it makes the screen less stable.
