Stuff works great only take note of the shrinkage as stated above. They claim 50% more like 30% shrink.
I squrt a little zap a gap down then heat up the tube and it works the Zap right down and out the end. if you go to wrap over it with thread and epoxy .The epoxy wants to pull back from the last few wraps of thread. You must spread out the epoxy while it is setting up. My case it's Aftcoat so about 3 hours.

stuff is holding up great and no complaints from anybody that has it.
