Is there anything I can do to fix welds that are leaking (exhaust)?
I had my cats welded on last week and they did one of the worst weld jobs I've seen on exhaust work. They are leaking around alot of the weld on both of them since they completly missed the cat at alot of places. Can I try putting on some high temp RTV over the leaks? I don't want to pay twice to have the work done so I'm hoping there is an easy and cheap solution.
The sad thing is the place is a sponsor on here, and they also kept the collector gaskets I paid $30 for to drop the x-pipe, even though they didn't do that like originally stated.

Didn't you hear the exhaust leak and wonder whats up? I would call them and talk to the manager. Tell them you want to take the car to have it done right right and they are going to pay for it.

Thoes are welds?!?!?!?
If you want a quick fix, nothing JB weld cant do
Go back to the person who welded it and tell them you want it Tig welded, and done right with even bead flow and spacing.
