J-B Weld Advice Needed

[thebkramer]

I went to HomeDump yesterday to buy some supplies. While there I remembered other Reefers saying they've used J-B Weld and AquaMend. I couldn't find AquaMend.. and this is the only J-B I found:

http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc...splay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053


Is this the right one? I'm scared to use it without others input
I did a search on RC.. but only came up with JB WaterWeld..? this one def doesn't say that. I also found comments that say it will leach into my tank? Most comments I found though about this particular product were more than a year old.
Is there a difference between this one and the WaterWeld?
Has anyone used this? if so.. How??

Thank You Sooooo Much for any Insight!! :wavehand:

Edit:
Hope this is the best forum to post in..
I thought more reefers here that used compared to NTTH

I've used the JB Water Weld ..... comes in the epoxy stick. Works great and I've had no adverse reactions at all.

Same here. JB waterweld I got at homedepot in the paint department.

It has to be waterweld and a putty stick. The regular stuff will not cure properly underwater.

It says Cold Weld.. on cardboard it says can be used for auto, garden, plumbing, marine, etc..
just wanted to see if anyone had used this one with positive results.. I'm a worry wart!
:lol:

Edit: Should I just ditch this one & try to find WaterWeld in my area?

Thanks again all!!

you bought the wrong stuff..

Homedepot stopped carrying the aquamend underwater epoxy about a year or so ago out here and probably the jbweld stuff too for some reason I havent seen that here either in quite some time..

Here is a pic of the right stuff. At least in our area Home Depot still carries it, just bought this over the weekend.

been thru 3 tubes of what KSzegi posted. works great.

I've used at least 8 tubes of the JB Water Weld posted by KSzegi, with great results. When used in conjunction with Loc-Tite gel, my frags stick without problems.

It has to say will cure underwater for it to work. I think the stuff you got is for out of water.
