No, its not going to work. Might for a short while, but risking it failing when you not around and having a flood. New faucets are not expensive. Much better solution to the problem.

/////////i had the same problem more than once. Sadly, the pressure makes them keep getting bigger. You need to buy a new faucet. I've found that it pays to upgrade a little in the faucet. Cheap ones don't last long.. I had a rug shampooer that hooked to the faucet and the pressure blew 2 faucets in 10 years, so I got rid of the shampooer

I patched a small hole in my stainless steel sink with JB Weld. Not sure about the tap though.

Thank you all for your comments and recommendations. I am throwing caution to the wind and going to make an attempt at this quick fix before I replace the entire faucet, or the part itself that is the spout on the fixture due to the small pin holes. I think it is safe to assume that the water pressure will be my bane, but I love a challenge.
