Default Resealing tea tray (thing that catches water)

I've also used Gorilla Glue, and it will give your tray a few more
months. Chances are though it will eventually leak again, bypassing
the Gorilla Glue. At some point, you just need a new one...

That's one reason I don't use bamboo trays anymore. They have a
limited lifespan and when they leak, they're very annoying.
