step air leak

[Tom Warner]

George what you are saying is simply not true. Soap
and water does work .............sometimes. God knows I have used it
before and pulled my hair out trying to get it to stay on the
fittings long enough to see it form bubbles and it sure does work if
the leaks are large enough. But the rectorseek you can buy at most
plumbing shops and Homedepot is far more efficient at finding leaks
then the soap and water. Rectorseek clings to the material you put it
on to give far longer time for the leak to make itself visible. Thats
exactly why it was formulated. Using soap and water to find punctures
in tires is one thing but when you are looking for leaks in pipes,
plastic parts and fittings, its another problem altogether. Do
yourself a big favor and try rectorseek. Once you do you will quickly
see the difference.
