Well if you've already got stuff on your shelf, a wee dawb on a prepared crack is a no brainer, there are so many innovative newish products out there that many are unaware of, CT1 is completely different to what's gone before... and another great product for a job like this is UV activated plastic repair glue.

 

These things and others should be part of every practical persons tool kit these days, up to date innovations certainly provide a whole plethora of solutions enabling effective repairs in situations that were previously not generally considered possible or worthwhile trying.

I agree....but the OP hasn't got that stuff....hence what I said. Given if you've already got the stuff, then you probably wouldn't be asking how to fix it or what to use anyway would you?

Looking at a new tank is not a bad idea to be fair 😂

 

Or if anyone wants to buy it off me - let me know

A new tank isn’t going to break the bank 

this is the most expensive one I could find 

worth fixing up

I have fixed so much stuff with "Stixall", that it is now my "go to" answer for most everything.

It also has an amazing shelf life, even after opening, so long as one pops the cap on the nozzle immediately after every use.

 

 

Seems to be a similar product to CT1 at half the price from the same supplier... it's very easy to get stuck in the past and turn a blind eye to innovation only years later finding out that you've missed a trick.

I don't know if you've looked at 'Multi solve' another novel ish product cheaply available from the same outlet that also has invaluable properties...cheers.
