Pipe Mud Question

[craig61a]

Why do you object sucking in JB Weld, but do approve of using Waterglass ?
No pun intended, serious question
For me a mixture of hardwood (oak) ash and water always works fine.

Sodium Silicate has a long track record. It’s non toxic, and when heated it dries and forms SiO2, or glass. Tough and long lasting.

I’d rather deal with that than fiberglass particles and the off gassing of epoxy…

It has a reputation for tasting bitter and foul.

I don't know where you dug that up.... It has a reputation for not tasting like anything.
