Review on ⚒️ J-B Weld 8267 SteelStik Epoxy Putty Stick - Steel Reinforced - 2 oz.: Strong and Durable by Carl Movahed

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Saves the day and can be cast to recreate a broken part.

how do you mix all the darker gray inside out to make it move and then flatten it, you can roll it, shape it, even press it so you stick the puree into cracks and gaps, time needed to dry, depending on how warm or hot it is, in colder temperatures this may not heal or crack the brake immediately as if thin, it's better to make it a little thicker than grind last if looks matter. Just think about it as you leave it as it hardens hard rock to much light gray doesn't work, you want a dark graphite color. I use this stuff all the time to touch up broken plastic or metal parts, it's been used on cars to hold broken bumper clips off the tailgate in place. And the plastic strip in the cabin, which broke, was roughly done by the previous owner and tore off the tongues. This material is great for covert repairs, even as a bondo on a car body. I had rust starting to punch holes in my car and I took a small chisel and a hammer to knock out the rusty rotten spots and piled this stuff onto some good bare metal and retouched my fender area with used paint and a Clear coat, the rust never came back and have never eaten in this area. I used this on a flywheel brake cable on a Briggs and Stratton lawn mower that has a technical issue where the end of the cable falls out or separates from the handle so I wrapped this stuff around it and it's still holding up after two and a half years. and in the barn during the harsh Ohio winters no problem. I just did an electrical renovation which involved ripping a round blue wire box out of the side of my mobile home and some water damaged particle board which not only kept the firewood going but my vinyl siding and carriage lantern look great too. This product has saved my ass and sanity countless times over the years, I've even used fiberglass to hold it together while using Bond to complete the repair. I've used this on rubber and foam where other adhesives like soup glue have warped or otherwise melted, made a thick repair to drill and even tapped threads for screws, used it in a vacuum that had some issues with plastic, where the bolts broke and the striker bar cover no longer holds, this saved my vacuum until the engine stalled.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • upgradable
