    Default Silicone odor

    How would I go about perfectly sealing the new foam to the old?

    Bill, my thoughts exactly! Haha

    Sure, Paul!


    I'm not really sure where it's getting through, but this is the area, inside of the big pot, that is leaking

    ok, here's i would seal old foam to new foam:

    first, remove the old silicone. carve it if you have to. get a clean foam surface. apply a light layer of silicone. while the silicone is still wet, apply a coat of foam. hopefully, this will allow the silicone and the polyurethane in the foam to bond. then, allow it to cure for several days, then water test BEFORE adding any coverings to the foam. this allows you to see any leaks without the added distraction of cocofiber and other stuffs. if all goes well, then worry about covering the foam.
