    My question is what if the hole is on the side? Or on the coping? What makes you think that this substance would sink to the bottom in the exact location of the hole, and would you want this stuff to harden anywhere else?

    My answer to the first post in this thread.....snake doo, voodoo, etc. Forget all the snake oil solutions and fix the leak. There are ways to find a leak, takes a lot of patience sometimes, but do it right.

    Findng a small leak with dye will take a lot of patience but is possible. I chased a leak last Spring (2005) and took a bit of effort but paid off.
    Hope this helps and any more questions don't hesitate to ask.
