All of my miller feeders leaked when I bought them. I run a bead of cheap
acrylic chalking on the inside seams. Spread the bead with my finger. Cured
them for a few days in the sun. Those that the bottom had completely
delaminated, I run a bead of chalking, dropped in a piece of corrugated
plastic (from scraps I had left over). Run another bead, spread the bead and
cured them. Took only a few minutes. None leak after 3 years. And that's
done over the original wax coating.  Bob
