Amjad Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Upgraded aluminium civic rad (either dual/triple core) Does it need replacing? I can get a video, but it's literally the smallest leak in one of the bars (ie between 2 columns of fins) at the back Should I get it welded? Is "Radweld" etc a no-no? Thanks Amjad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Some metal compound stuff might do the trick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 could get it welded or ive seen some people use an epoxy putty. rad weld ive used on other cars and its worked fine but ive herd that can block heater matrix's so i prob wouldnt sujest it to another person.

bucketep91 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I used some chemical metal on mine a couple of months back. Good as new! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted July 20, 2015 Author Share Posted July 20, 2015 Any links to this compound stuff fellas? Only thing I'm worried about is it falling to pieces on track. Or am I just being paranoid? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bucketep91 Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Iirc the stuff I used was called quiksteel. Got it from a motor factors. It won't fall off trust me! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
