I realize this question is almost two years old, but I wanted to share my experience with you. I recently used it to repair a broken pot metal thread on an antique car door handle. There was a third of a thread hole missing. I used putty to mold a repair after threading a screw into the remaining portion of the threads. As a release agent, I sprayed vaseline on the screw threads. It was a huge success. I removed the screw and sanded the part to fit in two hours, and it's back on my car today; the repaired screw threads felt tight when I screwed it down. I'm not sure how long it'll last; However, before spending a lot of money on a replacement part that doesn't match the patina of the rest of my door handles, it's worth trying the repair.
Chris, I'm not sure if this will show up or not because it's quite dark. I'd start with a small amount, mix it according to the directions, and let it set up/cure as directed. Then, simply compare the cured steel stik to your range hood to see if they are compatible. If it doesn't match, try experimenting with silver paint to see if you can make it match the stainless steel.
I'd recommend using Epoxy 2 part on the threads, then Steel Stik to wrap the plug completely. Just keep in mind that once you've used it, it's gone forever. I keep two-part epoxy and Steel Stik on hand at all times, and I've never had a leak that neither of these two products couldn't fix. Best wishes to you. And, yes, both can withstand water pressure. You may not need the Steel Stik if you first try the epoxy 2 part on the threads.
Technically, I believe it would fill and adhere to the ring's surface without difficulty. I'm not sure how long constant contact with your skin would affect it; the cured product appears to be inert, but you should test a small amount against your skin for a couple of days to be sure. Before permanently altering the structure of a ring you intend to keep, I would do this. This epoxy product IS a two-part item because it has one part on the outside ring and a central core of the second hardener, as mentioned in another answer. Simply rip off what you require, then twist and pull the putty-like substance. a substance until it is completely blended It will harden in the same way that steel does.

So far, everything appears to be in working order. When the instructions state that it will set in 5 minutes, you can count on it. Something else is required if you require more working time. You can feel the heat building up by the time you've kneed it uniformly, indicating that it's starting to set, so get moving! For what I used it for (reinforcing a metal tank, repairing a broken rod, and even making a new joystick for a broken N64 controller), it's a good thing I'm a quick sculptor. br>br>I gave adhesion a 3 because it isn't as fluid as the other forms. This is better to lock in as a mechanical retention (knee into cracks, shape around undercuts, etc. ), so if you putty this on a smooth, undamaged surface, it may not hold if vibrated or flexed. I wasn't fast enough with my first piece, and when it started to cool, it felt like a rock. As a result, I put it in the gravel in my front yard.
Very impressive! br>br>Easy to work with. br>br> Not only does it bond well, but it also does so quickly. But not too quickly. br>br>You simply slice off as much two-part putty as you require. On the outside, I used a grey part putty (hardener), and on the inside, I used a black part putty (epoxy). Alternatively, it could be the other way around. br>When you're ready, knead the two pieces together until they're the same color. br>At this point, you have three minutes to finish working with the epoxy until it becomes too hard, as instructed. br>In reality, I had maybe twice as much time, but don't hold your breath. br>br>I used this to make a replacement part of some sort. br>br>On a folding knife, a piece of the plastic handle had broken right where the blade hinges and folds out. br>The epoxy is supposed to set in 3 minutes, but I had a little extra time even after that. br>br>With enough time on my hands, I was able to apply the epoxy putty and shape it into a very close replica of the original part that had broken off the plastic handle. br>From the unbroken other half of the handle, I had a mirror image to work with. Later, after the epoxy had fully set, a little grinding with a Dremel tool was all that was required to get the epoxy to resemble the original part shape. It set quite hard, but I was able to shape it without too much difficulty, though it was far more difficult than the original plastic handle. br>With a little paint, the repair is now visible only when you look closely. The difference in surface texture, which is more ceramic-like, is most noticeable. br>br>Excellent stuff.
So far, I've used it in two automotive applications. Because of a few deep scratches in my oil pan, it was leaking. I was able to easily seal up the scratches with this product; it hardens in about 1 minute, so you must work quickly; however, it is ideal for use in areas where you don't have a lot of time or can't clamp well. It's been about a month, and the underside of my oil pan is still bone dry. It was also useful for repairing a snapped plastic piece that held my throttle cable in place (see photo). Because the throttle cable is under tension, and I had no way of clamping it while the glue dried, it was ideal. After about a minute of holding the putty in place, it was strong enough for me to let go without the newly repaired unit being moved by the tight cable. For just about any application, this is a must-have.
I needed something to patch a hole in my car, and this was exactly what I needed. Easy to work with and has a long working time; when wet, it's pliable like clay, but when dry, it's stiff and hard. Simply combine the two parts and rub them together until they are warm to the touch. It's ready to use once it has achieved the same color consistency. It's easy to see the difference in color between separated and mixed. Everything I needed and more to assist me with my car's hole patching project.
This formula was ordered for a strange reason. The inside plastic socket that surrounded the lever's shaft into the mechanism had been stripped out by the lever on my recliner. I sanded the shaft down to bare metal after removing the lever and cleaning it. It was also hollow in the middle. I mixed about 1/2 inch from the bottle and pressed it into the hollow center of the shaft, as well as filling the lever arm's socket. Then, while watching TV, I pressed the lever on the shaft and held it firmly in place for about 5 minutes. ) I let the assembly sit for about 6 hours after releasing my pressure, and when I went to sit in the recliner and use the lever, it worked fine but was not firmly in place. It was exactly what I needed.
I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews. For me, it was perfect. I used rubber gloves because I didn't want it on my hands, so I mixed it up thoroughly as directed. I used it to fill a small rusty dent in my porcelain tub. So far, no problems or rust; I sanded the rusted areas with 400 and 800 grit sand paper first, then thoroughly cleaned the surface before applying the putty. It quickly hardened. All it needs now is a little sanding and some porcelain touch-up, and it should be good as new. I'm very pleased with the product, and I can see many future applications for it.
Simply knead and apply this product to get started. I used the jb weld after degreasing my wheel. The problem is that the product does not "stick" to the wheel and conform to it like a true 2-wheeler should. a portion of epoxy It was simple to shape, so I started with 120 and worked my way up to 2500 before finishing with compound. To test it out, I ordered some bondo metal reinforced filler.
I use this product frequently and have had good results, though this time it was as hard as a rock and wouldn't let me mix it up, resulting in a big mess, so I'm not going to bother sending it back.
