Oh, I hope more people will chime in on this! I've been intrigued by those hoses, but it seems like most of that stuff is just junk.
Although, along those same lines ("As Seen on TV" that is), I bought a can of that Flex-Seal stuff and it's just great for sealing pin-hole leaks in my 1020 trays. I've tried several different things to stop those little leaks, and that stuff is the best so far.
