Has anyone tried this stuff?
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=36821 I have 2 breaks in the wire for my hidden fence system (for the dogs) and I really prefer soldered splices. One of them gets buried, the other is in the weather. I will shrink wrap the whole mess after it dries. |

I've used it selectively for low voltage marine applications and similar. I would think it would be fine for your invisible fence repair. If you want it fast, instead of HF, I've seen it at HD. |

Silicone in a tube as in sealant or caulk should be the same thing it will adhere to a clean surface and be waterproof, just be sure the tube is not more than a few months old. |

Silicone is much thicker and won't leave an even uniform coat on a wire. The liquid tape goes on like a heavy paint, will run into and fill areas in the connection and gives a more uniform, smooth, job. |
