Fiber Fix instead of Fiber Glass?

[Big.bucknc1]

Have any of you heard of Fiber Fix. Saw it at Lowes today. Could you use this on a plywood tank build instead of fiber glass in the corners. Here's a link http://www.fiberfix.com/. Let me know what you all think. I'm thinking about trying it.

I just e-maild Fiber Fix with this same question.

Never heard of it, but it looks interesting. Why not contact them and ask them about your specific application.

Never heard back from the company, emailed twice. Might have to do a mini build and see what happens. Anyone else seen this stuff, any input?

looks cool! I like how they use water to activate the stuff. seems like the same stuff used to make "fiberglass" casts for broken bones. if that is true then it won't hold up under water (my cast got all squishy when I got it wet)

They had this product on Shark Tank. It's like an epoxy duct tape that can fix broom handles and pipes, or things that you can wrap it around. It probably wouldn't work or be economical for plywood tanks.

The website does have a picture of this stuff on plumbing pipes, so maybe it could work.

This stuff might be just the thing for those damaged aquarium cross braces and frames

Probably not cost effective though compared to buying large sheets of fiberglass and gallon increments of epoxy. Its probably not convenient either, doing a tank by the strip instead of the sheet. Seems like it would take a lot of boxes of this stuff to do a tank.

I never messed with fiberglass so I might be wrong.
