Hi,
As in header. I have a Haws traditional can that's just about 2 years
old (birthday present)
Unfortunately I noticed the centre of the base had pushed out causing it
to rock around ( maybe frost?)
so I tapped it back into line and now see a slight weep/leak from the
welding around the base
Any ideas as to best way if any to repair?
Thanks.
Stuart.

plumbers solder and blowlamp/plumbers flux.


Will that "stick" to the *galvanised* can, though?

absolutely.

its only zinc, and that solders well.
