Thanks Bob. After the bathroom remodel was done and I was cleaning up I dropped my drill and of course it poked a hole in the tub. I thought I was gonna have to replace the tub. This did the trick. I watched a bunch a videos and this was the clearest simplest easiest to follow.
I've been watching a slew of these bathtub repair videos, and this is the best one. The masking tape trick, using the laminate sample as a flexible putty knife, and then using water with the sandpaper are great tips and make the job much easier!
All us “frugal” or just super cheap dudes were all over that “free disposable puddy knife comment!!!! All of a sudden you’re going to be seeing several guy’s carrying out those laminate samples for the shop!!! LMFFAO! Well sir, what color laminate are you thinking about? Well, to tell you the truth she’s just all over the place and just has a hard time nailing it down so I’m going to need one of each color… that’s right son, all the color’s! Maybe two of them just so I can keep a set for when she loses her copies so she’s not back here bothering you with it!!! LMFFAO! 😂😂👍. I’m a big fan of laminate and I just love tossing in some cabinets and a little folding table in a laundry room or a little desk area and with the right router bit it’s super fast and looks clean and good and it’s pretty cheap and easy to use too
Thanks so much for this helpful demo! My tub color wasn’t white but it wasn’t bone either, so I got both kits and blended both colors bit by bit until I got a close enough match. You gave me the know-how I needed. Keep making videos!
I have a tiny hole / crack in my shower, close to the drain...found out this is where my leaking is coming from....this video was so helpful. Thank you!
Thanks a lot, we used your excellent tutorial for our Cramer chip repair (bone) kit (bought at home depot) and it came out great! we used an old credit card instead of laminate sample. The tape really helped. We used orange oil to remove the mixture that got on our fingers, came off in 2 seconds.
Yeah man you definitely got it done! I use a little plastic cup like the food delivery restaurant down the street puts the ranch dressing in…I just go grab a couple from my buddy over at his restaurant and have some lunch so he’s happy to give me a couple… I usually use a little bit more harder so it’s kicking fast and it’s hard and ready but if you find that it’s going slow then add the hot blast from the hair drier to help it kick and hardened up for you! I usually put the tape back and sand then I can watch the depth and stay just on top of it…. I usually use the “The Works” or another acid based dollar store brand toilet or bathroom cleaner to get it super clean then I’ll repair it and then I use a automotive cutting compound super light cutting compound and my buffer and I’ll wax it back up and those little repair’s disappear behind the shine! LMFFAO! You can use an acrylic cleaner and polish and get a good result to…
Thank you SO Much.....I was hoping there was a good simple tutorial on youtube to show me how to fix like a pro. My chip is about the same size as the one you are demonstrating!
thank you for this! just bought a house and discovered that the tub has a chip on the floor of it, and i was worried that i'd have to reglaze the whole thing. as soon as i figure out what kind of tub it is (porcelain or fiberglass), i'm going to give a DIY repair a try!
When I was managing an apartment complex the owner made me do repairs with standard automotive bondo fiberglass repair. Looked like crap. This looks like a way better quality solution. I just ordered some for my own tub.

Great video! I have a crack on the fibreglass (or is it acrylic, not sure, looks like plastic for me but I am not a specialist). I dropped a heavy plastic container with 5 l of water in it and the bath cracked (not the plastic container!). It is 3 X 4 cm - it is a total area to repair. The crack is deep so the water can run through it. I am in doubts which product to chose to repair, the one like you show in the video or the one with a fibreglass cloth patch?
That may be a little bigger than this product will work on. I suppose if you back up the hole with something it might work but no guarantees. Thanks for watching.
this is a great video and so much better than the other ones I've seen. I have hairline cracks in my tub. I don't think water is getting in there, but should I repair it anyway?
Great video, really useful. Only issue is the product, trying to find something like this in the uk is tough. America is always better for getting specialist items like this.
@@funbro1 the US has places like Lowes where you can buy a lot of specialist items for specific jobs. In the uk you have mostly B&Q, I worked for them for a few years so can say first hand it’s very limiting.
This stuff is great for the sides and any part that has no one standing on it if your tub has good support under it then it will also be good but if you don’t have support under the tub it’s not the best my tub keeps crack and I used it twice
How long will this fix last? We have couple tiny holes next to the drain and given current mortgage rates to replace the whole thing, we’re hoping to win couple years with the quick DIY repair.
Can I use an orbital sander (applied way too much fixer and sanding by hand will take forever) or will I risk damaging the fiber glass tub? Also repaired a porcelain sink and have the same problem.
The only thing I would be worried about using an orbital sander is that it may remove a larger area than you really want to, but other than that, I don’t see why you could not use one. Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
What’s your recommendation for repairing a chip that’s smaller than pea-size? It almost looks like the paint is removed and you can see the unpainted fiberglass or plastic.
My first attempt didn't come out as well as I'd hoped. Ordered white, but should have got bone. Color doesn't match. Also, on one of the damaged areas, the sanding removed too much of the material. Waited over 3 hours. Used 5 drops of hardener. Thinking b/c of the temp, I should have used 4? I have to decide what I'm going to do. Order bone color, file it down and redo, or just redo bad area again with the remaining product I have and live w/ the color mismatch.
@@funbro1 Hi thank you fro reply my msg. my bathtub's paint coming off expose the light brown color surface( 7cm) and it looks different on your video. maybe different type of bathtub. I don't know what material my bathtub make of. and do you think this product works for my bathtub. also, if leave it alone and not fix it. can it cause leaking? i don't have any experience about bath tub. thank you
Is this tough enough for floor traffic? I have some chips in ceramic floor tile, and they are growing. The colors offered might be mixed for my tile colors, as they are faux marble.
I don't know if it is designed for this application but it would be worth a try. It's pretty tough stuff. Let us know how it works out. Thanks for watching.
It’s probably meant more for holes because a crack could potentially continue to crack depending on the cause of the crack. A crack will only be supported on 3 sides while a hole is supported on all side giving more strength to the repair. Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
Hi Bob I have watched your video many time. I have gone to Home Depot lowes and a couple of marine shop but nobody sells this stuff. How can I buy it. Many thanks Denis Vancouver BC
“Would have” is past tense which tells me you have not watched the video or you would have seen what product was used in the video starting at :43. Hope this helps.
“Would have” is past tense which tells me you have not watched the video or you would have seen what product was used in the video starting at :43! Hope this helps.
How Long do you have to wait to let the paint dry? I have a hole in the shower portion of the bath tub (made of the same material as the tub) from an incense stick. I happened to buy the same kit. So I'm going to give this a try!
I have a fiberglass shower surround that was poorly repaired. As in, the filled in the hole wasn't totally filled nor was the surrounding area smoothed out. There isn't a hole now but there must have been at one time. Can I sand over this old patch and fill it in with new stuff to smooth out the dimple/dent (not a hole)? It looks tacky the way it is now!
If you have a Dremmel that would be where I would start. I would use a small sanding barrel on the end. Just how I would tackle it, I’m sure there are many other ways.
What I have done in the past for enamel touch up paint for tubs is to go to the paint department and pick a like color of paint and tell the person that works the paint department to mix that color for you in a sample size, BUT instead of putting the tint(colorant) into the container I get them to put it on a piece of cardboard. Now I have all the colors I need to make the touch up at least closer if not exactly the same color as my tub. I’ve done this many times with touch up paint so I don’t see why it would not work for this repair kit. The hard part is talking to someone in the paint department that will actually do this type of thing for you because it requires thinking outside of the box. They will try to tell you that it will not work and I can tell you that it does work for the little touch up containers that they sell. Hope this gets you in the right direction, thanks for watching.
This is meant for a plastic/fiberglass tub. Am enamel tub should not get a hole it it…maybe chips or a dent and those would be fixed with touch up paint. Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
If it’s that big you may need something to back it up or it could crack. This works best on smaller holes, or chips. If your options are to either try it or replace the tub then I would give it a try. Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
@@funbro1 would it make a difference if it was on the side of the tub? Because it’s not anywhere close to the floor it on the side of the tub kinda higher up on the side where you walk out

Online or at many big box stores except Home Depot.
Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
If you want to repair another hole later with the leftover kit, is possible?
I don’t see why that would work depending on how long till the next repair.

Thank you. But what happens if it’s close to drain.
That might be a problem, you could give it a try what do you have to lose.
Thanks for watching.
How large a hole can you patch?

Thanks for the video. My defect looks similar. What’s missing is a thin oval layer. How do I tell if it is fiberglass? Thanks.
This works for fiberglass or acrylic so as long as you do not have a steel tub. it should work. Try using a magnet to verify.

Wait from 1-3 hours depending on the temperature. How long it will last depends on usage. Thanks for watching.
Would this work for a 3-4 in "hairline" crack on the side of a tub that really is not a hole or a nick but cracked enough for water to get through?

If it’s that big you may need something to back it up or it could crack. This works best on smaller holes, or chips. If your options are to either try it or replace the tub then I would give it a try. Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
@@funbro1 would it make a difference if it was on the side of the tub? Because it’s not anywhere close to the floor it on the side of the tub kinda higher up on the side where you walk out
It may be worth a try.
Whats the product name? And can it be used on bigger holes then this
Name is shown in the video and it can be used in larger holes. Hope this helps, thanks for watching.
