Hi guy's any tips on how to make water based sealer go of quicker.
Bloody stuff won't even skin, it's been hours. I need the joins to catch some rain water.

It's about 2 degrees outside and drizzley.

Hmmm hot air dryer probably zap meself in the rain.

Ha that's not good Gut's! pretend it's no longer as important to you, pay some more attention to a competing sealer, start the preparation process for this competing sealer, include some quiet conversation with the competing sealer but keep it within view and only very just out of comprehendable earshot to the troublesome sealer......LOL

good luck!:)

PS You might have guessed - sorry no good ideas:'(

Thank's FNQ, yeah your right a watched pot never boils.
And bloody sealer never goes hard either.

Oh well it hasn't rained yet just spitting so I guess it doesn't matter.

Cheers.

Yeah mate, did it go off, beat the rain, can be stressful having no control over these things? Was thinking a vacume cleaner on reverse might blow some warm air in its direction, little safer with the length of tube but probably too late now.

Hi FNQ, Mate it's pissing down out side and no luck the sealer is still tacky, last time I use that sh!t. (selley's pffffttt)

I still got another down pipe attached to the tank but I'm missing out on half the catchment with it. I had to drain the tank to patch a split in the plastic outlet before the tap.

Thinking I might just wack a plastic bag in side the adapter from the down pipe and 65mm flexible hose. Nah better not might just end up with contaminated rain water, and have to drain it again.

Oh well just did the plastic bag trick, it don't leak by passes the join should of done that in the first place until the plastic breaks down that is.

Yeah I had to do it starting to flood around the corner of me garage due to no down pipe conection.
With My luck if I had left it me house slab would crack.
