From "MythBusters Workshop: Extreme Plumbing",
article by Jamie Hyneman, published in the April 2007 issue of Popular
Mechanics:
"While making plumbing-heavy builds, we discovered an indispensable plumbing
supply product that's ideal for joints under high temperatures and high
pressure. It's called X-Pando - great name! It's a powder; you just add water
and use the resulting paste as a pipe dope. The stuff expands as it dries to
make a very strong seal. Adam and I don't know of anything else like it on the
market."
