Toilet bowl inside small hole/crack repair?

Asked Jul 4, 2007, 02:22 PM — 2 Answers
Something must have fallen into the toilet bowl - there is a very small crack/hole that doesn't seem to be letting water out as the water level stays the same - but - I really want to put something over it to seal it. Is there an epoxy or sealant I can use to seal this - I rent the apartment and can't afford to replace the bowl. My landlord will have a fit and make me pay which I can't do just now - please help me figure out how to fix this without replacing the bowl.

Thanks
Shelley

There use to be a product on the market sold at marine stores called Aquatapoxy which was a two part system and I had good luck with it for some applications involving underwater care, etc. It may work for you as a quick fix. Google the name and see what you find and where to buy.

Yes epoxy will work. I have a product that is used to seal swimming pools. As a matter of fact it is made to work under water and still set up. To fix it you will have to take a little sand paper to and around the crack before applying. You could actually go to hardware store and get some clear epoxy to use. Hey have smaller amounts.
