How can I repair a crack in Fibreglass shower base?
December 2, 2008Q: I have a fibreglass shower that is starting to show some cracks. It is not leaking, but I would like to try to apply some sort of finish to cover the cracks. Any suggestions?
A: For fibreglass repair:
1. Using a Dremel tool, V out the cracked area.
2. Using a pot scrubber pad and my Shell Busey’s Home Cleaning Formula, wash, rinse and allow to dry.
3. Fill V area with fibreglass two-part filler.
4. If structural integrity has been compromised you may need fibre-cloth tape to apply to seam. Note: To repair a crack that’s leaking, wherever possible, approach the job from the underside or back.
