LOCTITE RIBBON EPOXY

Loctite Ribbon Epoxy is a two-part epoxy putty in tape form. Once the amount needed is torn off and kneaded together (when it tarns green, it is ready to work) it only needs to be pressed over the hole in a leaky gas tank. The putty hardens in a few hours. Ribbon Epoxy is claimed to plug leaks and hold broken parts together while it cures from a pliable putty-tape into a chemieally-resistant solid. For more information, contact Woodhill Permatex. Dept. CW-5. 18731 Cranwood Pkwy.. Cleveland. Ohio 44128.
