How to fix a rusted muffler for under $20

I'd recommend letting the weldwood set over 72 hours before starting the car. This allows it to have the strongest fighting chance against the positive pressure that's created by the exhaust gas. Although JB weld would have been better, I'm very happy with the results. The car is much quieter now! I'll make another video with the true fix if this ends up not working long term.
Please note that this is only for people who have a car that is near its end of life and do not think it's worth spending the extra money to do it the "right" way.

same aluminum sheet in small size was $15 at home depot. The furnace concrete they sell on amazon for $4.99 or at home depot and you'll need a caulking gun. You'll need plastic zip ties to wrap the aluminum around the resonator to hold it in place. Then make them fairly tight. Take the stainless zip ties (they had at home depot for $10) and combine 2 or three to make it long enough to fit around the resonator like he did in this video. No need for the Black tape he used. Pull the steel zip ties as tight as you can, then cut off the plastic zip ties and you're done. I did this today, and am shocked that my noisy muffler is now quiet like it normally should be.

So how long did the patch last? How did the adhesive handle the heat?

the metal zip ties the ok but the glue stuff I used didn't hold up well. I'd recommend high temp JB weld instead

This was a how to video and you skipped the main part but i know what not to do i guess
