Anyone else ever come across or used this stuff before?
A few days ago, had the onset of headgasket failure on my daily work horse (punto 1.2 8v - renowned for HGF), was losing coolant, high temps after 15mins of driving, white smoke etc but no dodgy running issues (so compression ok)... a garage quoted me £450-500 for a HG fix
or doing it myself, probably around £150 ish. Either way, wasn't gonna pay out that for a crappy punto!
Anyway, Someone recommended me this stuff that you pour in and bonds itself to the hole and plugs it permanantly, though I had my doubts, I got some from my local motor factors, poured it in, and hey freakin' presto, its fixed the damn HG failure! Since done about 150miles and still going fine, temps stable, zero coolant loss and no white smoke at all. All for £10.99! Saved myself a fortune, cannot recommend this stuff enough!

So, anyone had any experience with this stuff or similar? Good and bad?
