quick fix - washer fluid reservior poked a hole

[S&S1stCruzer]

Like an idiot I put a small razor blade slice into the side of the reservoir. How can patch this plastic so it doesn't leak?

Can i use jbweld on this plastic?

Why not try using clear rtv silicone?

Howdy! I found some Plastic Super Glue a while back that works really good. It actually melts into the plactic a bit. I just stirred it in with the end of a toothpick where I had a crack in an overflow tank. You may need to open up the crack/hole/slit/ whatever just a bit so you can get some of the glue down inside of it. I found this stuff at Home Depot, I think. It was made by one of the major glue outfits, and it says "for plastics" across the top of the package. Good Luck. John

gas tank seal all works great on plastic hardens quickly too

and if this all doesn't work, and you need to replace the reservoir, it's about a 5 minute exercise.
