Hello,
Anyone know anything about this product called "Mighty Putty" that always
seems to be advertised
by some pitchman on TV ?
What is it made of ?
Waterproof ?
Any good ? For what ?

Probably it is not something new. I got the same kind of stuff years ago
when I think it was called plumber's epoxy (or something like that) that was
a different color.
Don't get suckered by the demo of pulling a truck. It is not the surface
application that is doing the job. The demo setup pushes the epoxy into all
the holes in the plate. The total cross section of the epoxy in the holes is
a lot more than any realistic use would have.
Check your local big box or other hardware store for a similar product. Buy
one and try it out. No need to buy multiple amounts that you don't need
now.

It's a two part epoxy putty that you mix by kneading the material. The
price on TV is astronomical. I buy it with a different brand name from
a local "freight liquidator" store" for <$2 each.
It's handy to have around.
Here's just one example

I would imagine most hardware stores and Home improvement centers have
something similar.

As others point out it is available at any hardware store. I have not
found it good for leaks.
