Thank you. I don’t care how it looks just don’t want it to leak. So I should put two pieces of acrylic inside the sump at the joint and glue this with Weldon 4?I cant tell in the pictures how big a deal it is, but will say acrylic is very easy to diy fix if you dont care about it looking perfect. Some TAP acrylic cement or weldon 4 and a couple scrap pieces of acryclic you can put on the inside of that joint and there should be no concern of leak or failure.
I don’t think there is a crack or hole to “fill in”. So I should just cover the joint with the Weldon 4 ? Both inside and outside the sump or just inside ?You can use the weldon and it will fill the crack if their is one. I would have no issues once its filled in as it forms a chemical bond.
Would you still use acrylic pieces on the joint ?You can use the weldon and it will fill the crack if their is one. I would have no issues once its filled in as it forms a chemical bond.
Most likely no.Would you still use acrylic pieces on the joint ?
Thank you very much I will give the Weldon a try. Thanks so muchMost likely no.
Its hard to tell by the pic.
Is it chipped or is their a visible crack.
A crack can be filled in with weldon it flows like water.
Get some weldon and use a needle applicator. If the weldon goes into the chip/crack then it will bond.
If its just a chip then nothing really needs to be done.
After looking at pick one it appears the acrylic has a hailine crack. Try the weldon and see if it fills it.
What if I can’t get the Weldon into the seam ? I really don’t think I’m going to be able to fill the gap as I can barely feel a crack in the surface.Weld-On 4 with a needle to fill the seam then Weld-On 16 (much thicker) to fill any imperfections if they bother you.
Do you think it will be an issue if I can’t get the Weldon into any groove to fill the gaps under the acrylic ? I can barely feel a hole or anything to fit a needle in.Agree on weldon which I used to repair similar. Silicone will in no way work or properly bond

Weldon should fuse everything together once appliedDo you think it will be an issue if I can’t get the Weldon into any groove to fill the gaps under the acrylic ? I can barely feel a hole or anything to fit a needle in.
Ahh sfin! Nice to see you still around. You helped me a lot in the past. I remember you from the husky pics I’m finally coming to a huge upgrade and have this bumb in the road. How have you been ?
Of course. Just worried it won’t fuse if I can’t get any liquid into the grooves. I’m sure I’m over thinking it but a leak in the tank scares me.Weldon should fuse everything together once applied
Obviously you want to leak test once repaired
it'll wick in if using Weld-On 4Of course. Just worried it won’t fuse if I can’t get any liquid into the grooves. I’m sure I’m over thinking it but a leak in the tank scares me.
Thanks manit'll wick in if using Weld-On 4
Yea weldon 4 is like water and it will find its way into the crack.Thanks man
