I have a 1500 gallon horizontal poly tank that has a 4" crack in a rounded lower corner from an impact of some sort. Got it from a neighbor and plan to put it in a barge wagon and pull it around to water trees. Looked in the YT archives and fiberglass patch seems to be the favorite remedy.
I mentioned this to a body shop man yesterday and he suggested using a 3M product called 8115. It's a two part epoxy that comes in a double barrel container and is put in a special gun that he will lend to me. He said he uses fiberglass window screen for re-inforcement instead of fiberglass cloth and it works well on plastic bumpers.
