Hi
Any idea on how to repair a 3 inch crack on Plastic bath? Would 'fibre glass resin' do the job - does it work? Does it leave a very bad finish?
I dont really want to claim insurance so any idea and help would be most appreciated..
Thanks
James
The crack can be filled with an acrylic filler inside the bath & then reinforced with a fibreglass patch & resin underneath.

I should have added that it would be difficult to colour match!
Any excess filler can be removed with a razor blade & then sanded smooth with wet & dry & finally Brasso or T Cut.

There are special epoxy resins available, Google for epoxy resin bath repair, and see
After further thought, if the crack is in the bottom of the bath you will not be able to apply any repair underneath the bath unless you remove the plywood base, which is glued on and which may not come off without causing further damage.
Best thing is to remove back to garden and use as a planter then install new bath
Thanks for all your info guy's. Greatly appreciated. Will attempt a fix it job @ weekend.... Hopefully willl work out
Cheers
