Leaking waterbutt?

Can anyone recommend a good product to seal a leaking plastic water butt?

if the leak is comming from the join underneath turn the butt unside down make sure thinks are very dry then use arldite, leave to set for 2 hours on a sunny day. remember some of those watter butts come with a 2 year waranty.

Where's it leaking from Simon? I've got a loose tap in one (which I'll use PTFE tape to hopefully cure) and a crack in another which I'm looking for a suitable waterproof sealant for.

Not as easy as you would think, due to the oiliness of the type of plastic used...if there is a crack in it, a fibreglass repair kit from Halfords or similar could do the trick, but the area covered would need to be heavily scratched to provide a key for the resin.
