if this patch doesn't work I'll tell you
at the end of the video like and
subscribe so this is a video that I've
never really intended to make I didn't
even really do any audio so I'm doing a
voiceover so what happened is I dropped
something in my sink I can't remember
what it was something heavy and
basically it put a hole and a crack in
the bottom of my plastic sink and I hope
you know I don't normally fix things in
this way like I would do a proper fix on
this but it was kind of like an
emergency situation I mean the sinks all
dirty everything looks gross I don't
really have nice lighting or anything
but you can see the hole down there in
the crack and really I I was struggling
because I needed to get this fixed
immediately so I thought this would
actually end up being helpful for some
people so what I did is I cleaned it up
by really good with the Windex and then
I made sure it was very dry and if you
have like a lot of people have those
small swimming pools and you can get
those pool patch repair kits just like
what you see on screen very calm and you
can get them almost anywhere you know
all the major stores will will have
something like this and so it comes with
this you know this patching material
it's like some sort of a liquidy stuff
and I think it basically it melts into
the plastic and it bonds the patch on so
I just cut out a piece of patching
material that you'd use for a pool so I
just spread that around there remember
very clean get everything very clean and
very dry and then so I just spread that
around and I put that little patch down
there now I was thinking like well this
might last like a day but this has been
two months so far and there's no
indication that it's gonna fail
so I mean I thought this might be
helpful for someone
because I'm not gonna be replacing this
well I will replace the sink up sometime
but not right now I have a lot of work
to do before I get into this I just
didn't want to spend the money to get it
something I didn't want just to you know
use as a filling in so anyways I tried
out this patch I was really really
surprised that it ended up it's stayed
on it's still working I do keep a bucket
under there just in case but I've it's
never leaked and there's always a water
laying in there now so yeah it's it's
pretty solid
I know it's it's kind of like a little
it's kind of it's not ideal I mean it's
not something anyone anyone that's a pro
looking at this will just say like what
is that guy doing but know what it
worked for me in the situation at the
time so something to think about you can
make this happen too
you just need a cheap pool repair patch
kit I can't remember how much they were
I think maybe like $10 for the kit but
yeah it actually worked out and it saved
me a lot of hassle so I'm just I'm just
gonna go with it
it's been a couple months as I said you
just apply the stuff the glue that they
give you put the patch on and I also put
the dryer on there for like you know 10
minutes on very low just to just a nice
you know warm flow of air over there and
it's sealed down and I could use it I
think it was within maybe overall maybe
like in 30 minutes and I don't know I
know it's it's not the best video
quality I had no intention of posting
this actually but then I got to thinking
you know this actually might help
someone who
you know I need some sort of a temporary
repair so I hope you enjoyed the video
