Review: Did the job on pond connection - What others need to know it's not sticky, it's not supposed to be. You wrap around the pipe to get desired thickness. I used on a pond connection to make sure there was no leaks. It's thin but quality is ok and worked. Value for money yes it's quite cheap

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work on a 2 stroke mixing bottle as my lid leaks?**
A: This is very thin and extremely flexible. If wound correctly and enough times will stop any leaks or seeps of liquids from pretty much  any tap, bottle. I’ve used it on my shower when washer was loose even after replacing. My outdoor tap.  My hose pipe. And also my watering can spout. Best to wind on inside not the outside wherever possible 😀

**Q: Can I use this without dismanteling tap ie.just wind it round thread?**
A: I have used it on the outside tap which stopped dripping when I screwed on the hose connector.  Not sure if it is meant for that but it did work for a while.

**Q: What temperature is this tape suitable for?**
A: Any

**Q: Is this fine to put in a leaky water bottle?**
A: Yes
