Plastic Padding

Hi just a quick question,

I've got a leak on my kitchen water tap (cold), i'm just wondering whether I could use Plastic Padding Chemical Metal on a small hole (I presume)? Is it poisonous?

    If you do it would be no more than very temporary and I wouldn't recommend it anyway.

    Where is the leak coming from?

    Get it repaired or replaced properly. I doubt whether any repair would "take" effectively unless the area was absolutely dry. Answer the question, "where is the leak coming from?"
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.

    Thanks guys! Good news i guess, the leak is from the hose to the washing machine which is leaking making it appear like the pipe work is leaking. Well, i did put some on the pipe for no reason, never mind. but thanks!
