| Hotspring Soveriegn Light Lens Leak |
Hello all. I have a '94 Soveriegn with a cracked and leaking light lens. My local dealer was able to track down a retrofit light lens kit from Watkins (part # 71832), but not the appropriate epoxy for the install. The instructions say to use Devcon 2 part epoxy that comes in a form for use in a standard caulking gun, but it does not specify what style of Devcon or a part number. I have been on the Devcon website and there are many different styles of epoxy available. The only clues that I have from the Watkins instructions are the dispensing method, the fact that they say it will take 24 hours to cure, and that it uses a mixing nozzel to mix the two parts as it is applied. It needs to be water proof as well given that the lens is submerged. Does anyone have some advice as to which Devcon epoxy is right for the job? Any help is greatly appreciated. |

If you want the right devcon, we have it. Email us at scarritt@snet.net or call 860-585-5977 and I'll quote you the price and it would go out fedex monday.
It is a watkins kit with a manual dispensing plunger and mixing tip. My techs use a devcon gun, it's not a typical type caulk gun. The manual plunger works fine. |

I was able to contact Watkins Manufacturing and found that Devcon Plastic Welder is the product to use. Product # is 14300. Costs about $8 to$10 per tube. I used two tubes to install my replacement lens. You have to work fast as it sets up in about five minutes, but it seems to work great. I Googled it and found a good price and great service here: http://thegluedepot.com/index.asp?PageA... &ProdID=79
Hope this helps anyone with a similar problem. " title="Very Happy" /> |
