What about that page from L=26L:

Is your kiln made of insulation bricks?
Untill now, I didn't make any repair that is satisfactory (I have
these fragil light insultation bricks). So other advice
are welcome.

I used the Bailey repair product this past summer in our gas kiln, and it
seems to be holding up well.

Hi,
This ought to make your lids blow........ I coated a 2" small piece of
fire brick from my small electric kiln.... the top inner edge just above
the coil, with some low fire glaze! Since I fire only low fire in it -
it seemed like the quickest way! :) mike
