Smoke Bomb

Martyn110 · Nov 22, 2015

Guess what happened here ??
I got fed up of wind squeezing in small gaps and rain trickling in, so today I bought some smoke bombs and it worked great.
I could see lots of place where smoke could escape sealed them up and tried testing with water cured most leaks and stopped a lot of wind noise.

That's a good idea! Lol!

It worked very well I'll see tomorrow morning how successful it really is

And as an added bonus you'll have no fleas in your Landy

What did you seal the gaps with?

Adhesive Foam tape from my local marine store and PU sealer works a treat

Did it not leave a smell or dirt everywhere?

No it lasted for about a hour with. The doors closed I just opens them for the rest of the afternoon and the small was gone

That has to be the most original idea this year

I don't have a series that needs sealing, but just out of interest where did you get the smoke-bomb from?

Clever! You can get them off Amazon, ebay where ever, the little ones anyway for testing fireplaces and the like.

If you want something a bit more heavy duty look up TLSFX or Enola Gaye

This must be what the local 'yoof' are all doing in the park near where I live, not sure why they do it at night though - or why they don't actually get out and look for gaps, just seem to go to sleep instead.

Yep I bought it from the local hardware store.

They are pretty boring all they do is smoke no flames or sparks

You can get them from your local garden centre, normally used for killing white flies and other nasties in a greenhouse. Also good if you've got an old house with silver fish or any other unwanted creepy crawlys. Unfortunately, no good for computer bugs.
