Thank you. I had a few cracks. One was bad. I followed your instruction exactly and it looks amazing. The floor of the tub is now very solid and the paint from Krylon (Buscuit color) matched up perfectly. Also replaced all of the chromed shower parts and it looks like a brand new shower. I am shocked at how well it worked out for us. Thank you. This video saved me thousands of dollars on a shower/tub insert replacement. Thank you

I want to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH SIR for this video!!! My aged parents had someone come out to give an estimate of why the tub was leaking. They were quoted $3000 plus to repair and $8000 to replace. My parents are on a fixed budget. I went to visit (I live 4hrs away) and inspect it myself. No water marks or stains around the fixtures. None where my dad said water was coming out the wall. I noticed a crack in the tub. I watched your STEP BY STEP video about five or six times to build my confidence to see if I would attempt the repair!! THANK YOU again because I did, and it came out perfect!!! Can't tell a crack was even there to begin with. It also fixed the water leak!!!! Thank God for people like you to help people like me and my parents not to be taken advantage of!! HUGE THUMBS UP!!! THANK YOU AGAIN! Your awesome!!

Would it be better to countersink those holes, then the fill would have land area giving more structural to the hole . A straight hole can more easily fail by falling straight through where a chamfered hole hole has a larger top and cannot fall through.

$3000! ...$8000! People are insane nowadays. They just tell you anything like money is water. I asked about taking a tree down in my yard and they said $3000. It was three guys and they said it would take a day. They were from Honduras and couldn't speak English. I'm pretty sure they must be here illegally. $3000 is probably more than a years salary for 2 people there. I found a local American guy and his son to do it for $600.

Thanks for this video! After 5 plumbers, one finally discovered a crack in the tub about 3-4 inches across in the bottom corner. They told me that repairing the crack is only a temporary “band aid”. I was told a new $4,800 tub/shower needed to be put in. Well......I know how strong Bondo is and when I seen this video, I knew right away this was an excellent option. I followed your vid exactly and stayed under $100 buying all the supplies. I’m about 14 hours away from filling the tub and testing out the repair. Only trouble I had was the fact I didn’t have a flexible tool to spread the glass and putty over the curve. I did what I could and smoothed it out with the back of my finger. It wasn’t a super flat flush finish, but after liberal sanding it is smooth and almost unnoticeable after the paint. Thanks for this vid and saving me loads of money. 👍👌😎

Make sure you make a circle of the material and then use one bead across the diameter of that circle of the hardener.
@oliverstreet7704
@oliverstreet7704 Год назад
The bondo may fail to cure if there wasn't enough hardener, if the hardener was old or stored too hot, if the resin was old or allowed to freeze, or if the surface it was spread on wasn't free of contaminants. Its absolutely essential to use something strong enough to remove all soap residues, any adhesive tape residues, the amine blush from the surface of any epoxy glues used by prior repair attempts, and the wax contained in the repair resin that rises to its surface to hold the hardener in the bulk so that it cures. I prefer to use Acetone for the final cleanup because its reliably effective. The formula for Lacquer Thinner varies regionally and over time to conform with air quality mandates. Any alcohol available will contain water. Acetone is always effective and doesn't leave any water behind, but its very hard on bare skin and it evaporates so rapidly that so-so ventilation is inadequate.

How soft is it in comparison to the areas around it? If it is not too soft then I would just do this repair and you will notice that it will be strengthened. Where is the crack located?

Was planning on doing the drill holes on both ends of the crack and where it’s beginning to spiderweb/branch out in the center, i was just worried that over time it might bust open again.

To prevent cracks again you need to inject foam under the tub to support the bottom. Therefore drill larger holes and spray the foam under the tub for this support. Use foam that doesn't expand that much like CRC Brand low expansion. Same process for showers. floors.
@DPTubs
@DPTubs Год назад
This is on a tub by tub basis. This particular tub was solid underneath but on the cove / back rest of the tub it was hollow. There is too much of a void space to inject foam behind the back rest of the tub. If you watch some of my fiberglass foam repair videos you will see that foam is only applied when needed.

When you're sanding between layers, what is your goal? Is it to make it super smooth or is it to remove the biggest pieces? Or are you sanding it to rough it up for the next layer to bond with? And are you sanding it till it's flush with the rest of the tub or is just to smooth just the part we're working with?

I bought a fiberglass kit with bondo. Will the mat work just as good as the hairy kind? First time doing this. Also on some other videos, i saw them drill random holes in soft spots also and fill with foam... Do you recommend this also? As this is in a old mobile home.

I cannot find the fiberglass matting that you use. Seems I can only find fiberglass cloth. It is a clothlike material rather than a 'clump' of fiberglass strands. Where do I find fiberglass strands like you used??

Is the hardner for resin, glass, and putty the same for all 3???

Does the resin and putty sand down perfectly even with the tub or do you have to put filler around the tub to even it out? Thanks

Thank you for explaining all the steps. It's quite a long process. Does each step only take hours each or is this done over a several days?

Do you have to prime and paint the tub at the end? I am repairing my own personal tub and don't care what it looks like. Honestly white won't match the color anyway so if I can shave $100 off the project that would be awesome.

Do I need Bondo glass and putty or can I get by with one? I ask because I only got the high bond filler. *edit* I couldn't find the Bondo Glass except on Amazon and I can't wait a month or more for them to ship it. So I went and used 2 patches of fiberglass cloth instead and let them dry for 2 and half hours before putting on high bond putty. Will that work?

What size sandpaper do you use for all of it?

I generally will sand with 100-120 grit and then smoothen out a bit before spraying primer with 220-320 grit

❓❓❓ So where do you get the hairy fiber mesh? The only stuff I can find is like woven sackcloth or something.

So I found the fiberglass mat at Home Depot.. Lowe's didn't have it, all they had was the cloth. The stuff you need is called fiberglass mat
