West of Broken Bow | Tank repair kit at auto parts store. It's a two part epoxy in a pouch or whatever that separates the activator on one end. You pop the seal in the middle by applying pressure and thus pushes the two ingredients together without rupturing the pouch. Includes sandpaper for roughing up the plastic area in need of repair to promote adhesion. Also includes fiberglass mesh to put down over the crack first after sanding. You cut it to fit and overlap the crack or hole enough.
You have to work the epoxy mixture by squishing it with your fingers but that's without opening it yet. You aren't supposed to work it for more than a certain amount of time because it will start heating up and hardening. Comes out black in color. Hardens up in less than an hour. Real easy to work with, just don't get it on your skin. Would be good idea to wear disposable gloves.
