Help! Temporary repair to grey water tank.

[Geocritter]

I just learned that my grey water tank has developed a small split in the bottom. Replacing it is going to be a female dog, plus it's still summer with 90+ degree afternoon temperatures (I HATE hot weather). I'm thinking of placing a layer of Eternabond on the crack as a temporary repair until the weather cools down in late September.
Has anyone tried this? If so, was it successful? It only has to work for a month.

Thanks for the quick input. I should have mentioned, I'm stationary until November, so there won't be much pressure on the patch. I'm thinking it'll work just fine. I have my fingers crossed!

Don't Pitch It... PATCH IT!!
Try a 4-foot roll of this amazing product.
Double thick MicroSealant EternaBond® RV-EMT Mini-Rolls are the perfect answer for difficult repairs like pool liners, rubber boots, expensive covers for boats, grills and outdoor furniture, holding tanks like those on wet/dry vacuums, cracks in basement walls, toilet tanks, leaking shower stalls, sinks, etc.! EternaBond® RV-EMT Mini-Rolls are 4' long and 2" wide.

Good luck with it.

Cool, go for it! Let us know how it works.

I'd go to an RV store and see if they have any temp patches...you should be able to find something...

I'm not sure about the eternabond...that's a lot of downward pressure. Whatever you do, drill a small hole on both ends of the crack to stop it from spreading.
