Concrete Bird Bath Cracked
We have a toadstool style concrete bird bath and the bowl is cracked. I
was expecting it to shatter this winter but it has survived. Any suggestions on how to seal it? -- hugh "Believe nothing. No matter where you read it, Or who said it, Even if I have said it, Unless it agrees with your own reason And your own common sense." Buddha |

Buddha Had a similar problem and used CT1 filler, did the trick for me. Works on damp surfaces and dries rock hard and waterporoof. Johno |

Also consider milliput and epoxy mortar I used superglue to mend a fairly large fancy plant-pot which we found had a hairline crack. It has withstood many hard winters. I don't know if it helped that it was unused when I fixed it. [You might need a fair quantity of superglue, so a trip to a Pound Shop to buy a multi-pack might be required.] -- Ian |
