      Yea and it was really bad application using a knife to cut the tape. Instead of taking strips of the tape for the barrel, just getthe tape stuck onto the barrel at 1 point and scroll the tape slowly down whilst pulling the polythene thing and applying the tape as best as possible. For the water hose , just straighten it first then apply the tape not just casually wrap in vertically around with gaps and hoping the tape to hold all the pressure. Really amateur application.

      I tried it on a radiator hose that sprung a leak. Since it was so cramped it was a pain to get on.. as well as get off. The shit is VERY sticky, so I guess there's that. I should have just got the $4 instead of waste $12 on the tape.

    For the barrel test/boat test he put flex tape on both sides, this is important bc most of the pressure will be held by the tape that's being pressed by the pressure itself which essentially helps bind the tape to the boat.

    The leaks are coming through creases on the tape that were made when you applied it unevenly. It doesn't matter if you got wakandan vibranium tape, if you apply it wrong then it will always leak. The only real failure on the product's part was when it gave out under the water pressure of the hose and barrel. Besides that, it performed as advertsed.

  • @iameatingtrifle
    @iameatingtrifle Před 4 lety +1

    As with most things in life, good results come with good preparation.
    I once fixed a leaking radiator hose on my car with black tape (it was the forrunner of duct tape) It lasted over a week while i waited for my new hose to turn up. I drove the car to work for that whole time & didn't even need to top up the radiator!
    Clean the surface properly, put the tape on properly and you might get different results bro.
    Other than that I cant seem to stop watching your uploads :)
