Very helpful video. The instructions on the resin tube recommend wearing GLOVES when kneading the hardener and resin. Something to keep in mind. Also, if you have a vacuum-sealing system for foods, etc.--such as "Food Saver"--the putty might last longer than the one year mentioned for opened tubes.

I've been struggling with an in-ground hot tub leak for MONTHS. I tried using drops of dye around the surface, and even patching over jets and lights with duct tape and plastic bags trying to find the leak(s). Just stumbled upon this video and it did the trick. In my case, there was some old puddy located at the back of a pool light that was sucking up the dye around its edge. Just needed to remove and repatch. Thanks for the help!
