Gray Tank Repair Failure

My gray tank patch failed. I noticed some leakage from the coroplast underbelly through some small drain holes that I made 2 years ago. When I got home I opened it up and saw the same crack right in the middle of my Plasti-Mend patch, only bigger.

I repatched the crack with Plasti-Mend, and I was more aggressive this time with a patch that covers a bigger area and incorporated more fabric.

I also contacted Ray Burr at "Love your RV" to see how his patch held up. He said his repair leaked again and he repatched the same crack every few months. After about 3 times he switched to a product called G/Flex Epoxy and there has been no leak now for 22 months. I would call that a better success than Plasti-Mend.

If my leaks reoccurs, I intend to use G/flex next time. Stay tuned.
