I have tried: Permatex RTV Silicone Adhesive Sealant, Amazing Goop Automotive Contact Adhesive and Sealant and No-Run Super Glue Gel. Nothing seems to be working.

I'm using the same plastic bottle (radiator overflow) that everyone else is using. Any other ideas?

i went to home depot and used this water sealant specifically made for plastics like windows and stuff

ill go find the bottle

but pretty much i just piled a lot of it up, let it dry, did it again, and again

i put 3 coats on and kept piling it up, then filled and tested, it leaked a bit

drained and worked a few more layers outwards ... works great

gimme a minute to find the name for you
