Strudul Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Simple / easy, but risky. Just oven / heatgun to warm them up so you can crack them open. Once you're done, it's just a case of resealing them, but if you've got to ensure a perfect seal or you'll get leaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P15UL T Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Don't it loads of times. Misting can be a nightmare and unpredictable. I've used different silicones and bitumin rubber seals. Sometimes it works other times they most up. I've got a feeling it might be to do with the paint as well. Would today's water based paint hold moisture ?
