You can put it on wet surfaces but it's a lot easier if they're dry - if it's still leaking, I find it much harder to get a good seal, and it definitely won't work if the system is under pressure, but other than that, it's worked every time for me. We used to refer to it as ‘low confidence paste’ as you’d use it on compression fittings or connections if you didn’t want to risk a leak upon filling up. I happened to notice that there was evidence of a very slight leak at the point where the pipe enters my toilet cistern. I still wont put it in my boiler as im all but 'must be natural' semi organic leaf hop no pellets no plastic no poison man but then I probably shouldn't be drinking beer.

Only downside was that some of the contents had cured when I went to use it again a few months later, so I could only apply by cutting open the tube below the section that had 'solidified'. I've always been pretty careful about such things too, but to be frank I'm beginning to think there's very little that's utterly safe - I'm increasingly just going for what seems pragmatic. The best use I can find for it these days is stopping the cheap brass fitting threads squeaking when your tightening them up. I've not yet tried to seal fittings in LDPE/HDPE (normally nothing will stick to it) pipes, but think it would work if connections/fittings are PP or that black rubbery stuff (it defo sticks to those).If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. Steve B wrote:It's food safe - I've used it to seal things in my brewing setup - no discernible off tastes or anything that I've noticed.

Brilliant for screw-in or push-in irrigation or hose fittings instead of PTFE tape - works a lot better.Fil recommended it ages ago so I gave it a good looking into but the only thing I found was that it was suitable for potable water. I didn’t find it that easy to work with, but that's inherent in the material - it's not quite as sticky as most glues, but same consistency, and tends to stick to tools or hands.

Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH).It sets quite quickly - in low pressure systems, provides a good seal within an hour to few hours, depending how thick. Can it be put on rad tails on top of ptfe tape and can it be used on olives between the tvr, copper pipes and rads etc. They mention that it works well to seal numerous leaks in waste water pipes, high pressure systems, and compression joints. Lead times are shown on the product and trolley pages and are always advertised in working days (Monday to Friday). Apply LS-X direct from the tube and mould into shape using a spatula or knife previously dipped into soapy water to prevent adhesion or dragging.

Use it all the time for making tank connections in on cold water tanks , I always use it when making shower tray wastes in and I’ve never had a problem .

An alternative for permanent fixtures is JB-weld, but its a similar story with that - the manufacturers say its non toxic (when set) but again thats not 'actually' a guarantee of being food-safe in hot wort or the after cleaning chemicals one may use. Good and bad really, can get you out of a situation if a small leak appears but honestly if it’s more than a very small weep it won’t seal.It also sticks to most surfaces, including to PP (polypropylene plastic) - tried other solutions, but none worked as well as this.
