  1. This little https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxVoi3B4CB6Oygq1-vo4OTL1M_M5JkrXif tub works perfect in our 6 x 6 shower and is easy to get in and out. Also easy to drain.

  2. What do i need to do if the support underneath tub is soft in middle? Please help and answer! 🙏

  3. Does this work for acrylic tubs too? I'm having trouble figuring out if my tub is acrylic or fiberglass.

  4. Is it recommended to add additional coats of the resin?

  5. It will crack doing it this way will not last long.

  6. I appreciate this video greatly as I’m going to attempt to fix a crack in my tub tomorrow. I watched other videos why did you not use the fiberglass sheet for this one? I cannot tell if I will need a fiberglass sheet for mine.

  7. Thank you Danny for great step by step instruction. Currently following your steps to fix a crack in a tub and i have question for you. The Bondo general purpose putty you are using is not available in Canada, can i use the Bondo body filler instead?. Thanks in advance

  8. Awsome!!!!! now im going to try, wish me luck

  9. No Zinser 123 primer this time?

  10. How do you apply the puddy? Brush?

  11. So cool. Got me all pumped up I think I can do it!

  12. Would this work on cracks that are all the way through?

  13. in other videos you used Krylon spray for small jobs. What is the reason to switch up to Homax?

  14. Thanks for the video, I wish I saw this before attempting to repair the crack on my fiber glass tub. I used Keeney Bathtub Inlay Kit for Bone Colored Tubs to try and fix it. I realized after it was the completely wrong color and it did not seal the crack. What is the best way to remove the putty and start fresh?

  15. Do you have to prime it before you spray paint the color on?

  16. Will this work if the crack is in the middle of the tub…where you stand while showering?

  17. Do you recommend drilling holes n a 4 inch crack?
