Can I use JB waterweld and silicone tape to fix pinhole leak in PB Pipe?

[fattboyzz]

Clean area well.
2 part epoxy.
Hoseclamp rubber hose real tight.

It might fix it forever, or give you time to map out a permanent fix .

I was able to get it patched with PEX and Sharkbites, thanks everyone for the suggestions!

We’ll be awaiting the next post seeking help on repairing that repair….

Eventually the repairs out cost a total replacement but budgets control the situation always.

Although I am not a plumber, my limited experience with polybutylene pipe has taught me that once it begins to leak, it is best to replace it.
