Default Captain Tolley’s Creeping Crack Cure!

Everyone should have some creeping crack cure lol

I had a small rainwater leak into the right-hand side of my boot (saloon).

I couldn't tell where it was coming from so I put the crack cure all over the place. It worked a treat. Despite its rather strange name.

Used it loads, it’s great for sealing the seam seal cracks near the boot hinges

Great for leaks of all kinds. Not suitable for medical problems! .... or big boats!

Apparently, to fix cracks successfully, they should be no wider than 0.6mm and might explain the occasional failure to fix. Exactly how you determine that isn't explained. Good for some things tho. I believe it's a PVA glue.

Its Brilliant. Use it on all sorts of problems.

I use it when area dry. It seeps in. Leave it 20 mins. Then try second application. Its usually doesn't get drawn in meaning there's no more leak.


There is a PVA rumour but im sure the makers could add light to that one.

Was introduced to this great stuff by fellow caravan owners. It really does work.

Cannot recommend it highly enough.
