Ready to Apply the Weldon?

[JBendel]

Any last minute suggestions?

I 've got Weldon 3, and was planning on applying it in "one shot" on the inside seams. Once dry and proven water tight ... Baffles will be inserted and glued.

Once dry ... is it worth untaping and applying a second Weldon pass on the outside seams?

It's taped flush ... I could clamp it, but I hear that could effect the capalilary action ... any truth to that?

The game plan is a sump/crypt. It's 4' x 16W x 13H ... overflows will feed into both ends and water will be returned from the center. Don't expect the water to be more than ~ 8" deep.

holy crap ...
thats all together without any solvent?
Nice work! ...Most pople use #4 as a first application and 16 as a filler.
PM "NEO" for help with details, Gustavo is the resident expert on acrilic fabrication.
(And for good reason)

Good idea ... I 'll be sending a PM to Gustavo ... with the right amount of beer ... maybe I can get him to do it. ... he's about 5 minutes from the house.

I may have to start at Boston Post Liquors and work my way back.

Uh oh, looks like NeO isnt the only ONE
You've got some competition Gustavo

Gustavo is very safe ... My tools can cut square and the jointer does it's thing ... but I can see the art is in how to apply the different Weld-ons ... everthing I did was with #3 ... pic doesn't show the smears, runs and drips. .. for a sump .. it should work.

Hey Rob ... hope to see you tomorrow
