Ok my radiator has a hairline crack along the top. Squeezing the top hose used to make it bulge a little around the crack, and looked like it could get worse. I got some organic cleanser/patcher stuff, which you mix with your coolant and flushes any corrosion or build ups and also goes hard when it comes in contact with air. Seems to be doing a good job so far.
But I want to patch the radiator externally (it's looking kinda nasty), and not sure exactly what to use on the ceramic/plastic type surface. Has anyone got any idea's on what to use? I haven't messed with this material before, and don't want to pay some radiator shop to do something I could do. Cheers
