  • Were going to try and see if this will really work. I'm going to attempt to temporarily repair a cracked wheel I have with some jb weld I had laying around. Lets put it to the test!

    follow up update: the JB Weld did seal the crack without any leaking! So it did 100% work.

    It’s leaking because the tire isn’t fully sealed because u put jb welds in the inside u can fix it by sanding the inside of the rim till it’s flush with the edge of the rim and tire and then sand with a 1000 grit to kind of give it a polished seal that would help it seal

    Replace the rim. It 's the only safe option. I studied Engineering buy my groomer knows that crack promulgate further in- to areas that paste cannot reach. You also did not tape off or prep (sand) the area correctly. it was tacky because you put it on very thick. Never use a heat gun. That heats the OUTSIDE only. Sealing in the wet material so it does not cure evenly. Yes, the outside will feel rock hard, but inside is what matters- sort of like bodybuilders who take steriods to look good on the outside.

    @funfun5656 Месяц назад +1

    if you were to grind down the JB weld so it seats even there would be no leak there. Either that or just throw some bead sealer on it. I know you already sold the wheels but someone else might find this info useful.

    • @BMSmouthers
      @BMSmouthers  2 года назад +1

      Honestly it’s been holding! It’s got a tiny leak next to the crack where the ib weld isn’t letting the tire seat against the rim. & I blame myself because I just lathered it on where the tire seats so it’s an unlevel surface. But the crack itself isn’t leaking anymore!

      I mixed it about 50/50 ratio. It’s one part cream & one part hardener, then they somehow chemically react and turns rock hard
