    Just a thought.

    Thanks much, Carl. I wasn't aware that there was pool Expoxy. I'll consider that. I was using a version of Lock-Tite Epoxy made specifically for plastic.

    Yeah, pool epoxy is a putty form of epoxy. I've made some spectacular fixes with putty epoxy, including a car's heater core! It's made for concrete and such, but hardens practically like concrete! It's worth a try and could save you hundreds. If you can't find, go to an autoparts place and get kneadable ribbon epoxy--it's also epoxy putty.
