Water tank inspection cover resealing


Featured Posts

I'm in the finishing throws of resealing my water tank its got me thinking about resealing the cover I've got some silicone sealant marine stuff. Or could I use the stuff you use on the weed hatch cover. I want to do a yearly inspection what would be easier to get off the last lot of silicone was a right pain to get off.

I used single sided foam tape from

Seals under compression like weed hatch. Our tank cover is in the side of the tank so always has water against it. It hasn't leaked in 2 years so far. I used 155 mm x 6 mm.

Their tech people are helpful, and will cut roll to any with you require.
