Putty Bath Repair Kit

My shower screen was coming lose from its fixings and despite bribing my hubby with homemade cake to fix it…he didn’t. So it fell into the bath and made several small holes and deep gouges in it (joy!). I bought one of these kits and he sheepishly used it to fix it. It worked a great and you’d only notice the repair if you were looking really hard for it. Did hubby then fix the shower screen…..did he heck! Despite then bribing him with more than Cake (don’t ask!) he STILL didn’t repair the screen and (yup, you guessed it!) it fell AGAIN and damaged the bath again. So I ordered ANOTHER one of these kits and hubby sheepishly made the repairs again. The homes were bigger this time but this kit still worked really well. Just in case you’re wondering, I took the damn shower screen down. I’d highly recommend buying this kit if you have a numpty husband too who can’t see an accident waiting to happen and your bath gets a bloomin hole (or 6!) in it! Just be careful not to get it on anything else as it really does set like Billy-O. In case you’re wondering, I threw out the shower screen but kept the hubby. He’s lovely really. Now, if on the rare occasion I think he’s wrong and I’m right, I only have to say two little words to make him reconsider his position….SHOWER SCREEN!

I'm always slightly sceptical about products like this (not helped by some of the negative reviews), however, I can report this worked brilliantly for me.NB I had a hairline crack in the base of my bath. I bought the putty version, thinking I might need it to fill the crack, but it wasn't needed. For hairline, the liquid filler is more than enough.The instructions were straightforward and easy to follow (there's also a video on YouTube); filler was easy to mix and apply. The colour match was very good for my bath. I'd say 95+% the same. I have a ten year old acrylic bath. The filler is a bright white so I assume the newer your bath, the better the match.Overall the job took about 3 hours. The rubbing down once the filler had cured was the bit that took the longest. When it was finished I could barely tell where the repair was. I'm delighted and would wholeheartedly recommend.

Worked far better than I expected since reviews were mixed. Followed the very clear instructions and result is a near perfect repair of the damage. Advice would be to hold plastic cover down with masking tape to prevent heat curl but other than it worked. Cost appears high but compared to replacing Bath is fair. Especially after seeing the final near invisible result.

I bought this kit to repair a split around the shower drain, which consisted of two cracks and three actual splits.The amount of putty supplied in the kit was about half a thimble full. I was probably expecting too much from the kit. I am sure that for minor and cosmetic repair.I returned the kit as unsuitable for my requirements.

Almost invisible repair to a hole in the bath, you have to know where to look and even then it’s hard to see. Worth using something to hold down the edges of the plastic sheet while the repair cures as mine peeled off after several minutes ( just applied some more acrylic) but other than that, a doddle to use.

I was sceptical but thought it was worth a try, it was easy to use and the colour was spot on.I challenged friends to find the repair to the shower tray I dropped a large tile on and as yet nobody has found it.

I guess I will go across my experience with the product.So I had a crack on the lip of the bath. Repairing it professionally seemed so expensive, more than just buying a bath, so I got this.First up, the instructional video you may have seen on Youtube is a con. It is not intended to instruct you, it is intended to sell the product. The "finished" result is filmed prior to the damage being done. They then chipped the bath, did the instructions and never actually showed the real result. It is utterly misleading.Secondly, the quantity you get of everything is just too small. In the video it shows him with a big ol' tube of putty. But the actual product is like... a single bit of chewing gum. Hardly enough so you really have to spread it thin.So, you follow the instructions, but since I'm on a vertical surface, I make a reservoir of blutak as instructed...it doesn't work at all. It just runs down and collects at the bottom and drips out. So I decide to wait a bit and let the mixture thicken, but by then I'm already running out. There's just barely any in there. So I'm struggling abit and have to spread it thin. Luckily it works better this time. But really, for nearly £50 you'd expect a bit more. You basically get to get it perfect first try or you're out of luck.The next day, and the liquid has fused with he blutak into a complete mess. THEY LITERALLY TOLD ME TO DO THIS. But the mixture has reacted with it and it's really hard to get off now. The blutak advice is so terrible it should not even be mentioned. Just wait 5 minutes for the mixture to thicken and then apply it. DO NOT use blu tak.I am now sanding it down desperately trying to salvage it. I followed the instructions to the TEE by the way. This product may work perfectly for a flat surface, I'm sure it does. But if the damage is on a curve or vertical, I can't really recommend it.So, I'm sanding it down. But, I really do expect with the slightest bit of pressure for the crack to form again anyway. It doesnt feel that sturdy or anything. If by some miracle it ends up not looking like a blutakky abomination by the end, I will amend my review slightly.

Love this product repaired a new bath that I had just fitted but damaged after dropping a tile on it. Colour matched perfectly and is almost invisible. You have to know where to look and even then unless you look up close you will not see it. Brilliant
