Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Any one carry this around with them on the road. Great thing to have for those "Emergency" fixes. Quite a wonder product......and Made in the USA, Not CHINESIUM. Look over their Website. It's quite informative.

I can also recommend carrying Rescue Tape, http://www.rescuetape.com/. Available from Amazon and Walmart online.

Yeah Bill that is some great looking stuff that could get a guy out of a bind for sure. That's funny in the website picture it looks like rolls of tape that sat in the heat too long and got all deformed. Haha

Thanks for the tip.

That kind of reminds me of Gorilla Tape...................Way better than Duct Tape.

I know a local guy here tried a fix on one of the plastic end tanks on a car radiator(just like in their video). He took the rad into a rad shop to have it pressure tested after he fixed it. The rad shop guys were laughing and mocking, "That's not going to hold". ................Well worked like a dam(no punn there). Still working fine.
I think it's great to get out of a bind in some cases. However they claim to drill and tap threads into it for some repairs. Great to carry in the tool box.

PB Blaster for rusted on bolts; lubricates; penetrates and repel water. JB Weld two part epoxy; repairs breaks; cracks on most any surfaces. I even fixed a cracked cast iron engine block that could not be replaced. Also it can be molded and formed and drilled. Marvel Mystery oil; used as upper engine cylinder lube; can be added to gas or diesel fuel. I think evey one now uses 'Sea Foam' instead. Just a few of my "old School" remedies! We can't forget the good ol' WD-40; an excellent water repellant and quick lube!! PIEERE
