Last time I had to deal with a toilet that had developed a leak between the pan and the soil pipe I used some open-mesh fabric about
2" wide which had been impregnated with a goopy, non-drying substance which wrapped around the joint area and sealed it up beautifully. That was years and years ago and I can't remember what it was.
I've now discovered a similar small leak in my toilet at home and I've searched on-line for the goopy stuff and have drawn a blank.
a)Does anybody know what I'm talking about and if it is still available?
b)Is there a better way of doing a quick fix?
I'm planning to re-do the bathroom in about a year or so and don't want to remove the toilet pan and replace the parts properly just to pull it all out again later if I don't have to.
Thanks,
Nick
