Find and Stop Water Leaks

Do you have a water leak in a windshield, rear window or body seam that you just can’t seem to find and stop? This time proven technique Using Eastwood Heavy Duty Anti-Rust (#16017 Neutral or #16032 Black) in Quarts is for you.

Most water leaks originate in windshield & rear window seals or cowl and other body seams. Follow this procedure to find and isolate the entry point:

-On a clear, dry day, take a garden hose, climb inside your car and have a helper run the water over the car in the area suspected of leaking. If you are not sure of what area the leak is originating from, start form the lower areas such as the cowl and work your way up around the windshield pillars and around the roof. Once the water flowing from the hose reaches the entry point, your leak should begin. At this point stop the water, note the exterior location and thoroughly dry the car. Leaving it in bright sun for a few hours is best.

To Seal the leak:

-Take your quart of Eastwood Heavy Duty Anti-Rust, pour some into an empty metal coffee can or other suitable container and place the container into gently boiling water. Allow the Heavy Duty Anti-Rust to “melt” and thin out to a water-like pouring consistency, form a pouring spout in your container by bending and CAREFULLY and while wearing heat resistant gloves, begin pouring the thinned out Heavy Duty Anti-Rust into the suspected leak path. It will flow like water into the leak area. Let it cool and solidify after which it will fill in the gap, seam or hole sealing up the leak.

-Next, after the Heavy Duty Anti-Rust has solidified, remove any excess spilled on the exterior of your car with kerosene. It will quickly dissolve the Anti-Rust and not harm your paint.
