Goop Rules! I used it to cut my westy water tank down to fit inside my stove sink fridge unit to allow me to take the whole thing out in a couple minutes. Has never leaked. Way, way better than standard silicone for putting stuff together. My buddy turned me on to goop way back when it first came out, he dropped his chainsaw out of a tree shattering the plastic case, he glued the entire thing back together with goop. it looks like a 1000 pc jigsaw puzzle. He shows it to me every time I go up to his property, so proud of that.
