I have a slight leak under a hole that is plugged on the back of my 300. If I drain the tank below the level of the plug and coat it with PVC cement, will that seal it? It's a very very slow drip.

If not, what do you suggest? It would be very difficult to remove the plug because the tank is against a wall.
Thanks in advance
 
I think that would work. Maybe when the cement drys, go over it with silicone.
 
If that doesn't work there's always Weld-On, it says it bonds acrylic to PVC.
 
Thanks guys! I tried the PVC cement, we'll see how that goes.
