I heard about this on the radio recently. It's moldable rubber that sets hard and apparently sticks to anything. Some car related uses below.

Promise, I have no connection to the company, but I thought this has to be useful for ad-hoc car repairs.

Could be very useful for making custom grommits and the like.

It's good, but it's chuffing expensive; I bought some to repair a keyfob which the rubber coating had reacted with something and gone like chewing gum, it worked really well and was pretty easy to use. Apparently bathroom silicone with flour mixed in is a passable low cost facsimile.
