To seal a hole in the exhaust pipe

 


 

 
 
I was quoted RM150 to repair this exhaust pipe but found it common practice to use aluminum foil of a can-drink to seal a hole of an exhaust pipe so thought it was worth a try. I bought a mixable epoxy type which turns hard and grey at RM10. The foil was separated and a measured portion cut to cover the hole. The foil was glued to the exhaust pipe then coated with epoxy as a hard protective shield and rubbed down with dabs of water. Later, the exhaust pipe will be painted with black high temperature paint. If this fail, then its PLAN B but at least I know I tried.
