How will a Bath Repair Kit repair a hole in my bathtub?
It’s simple enough to repair a hole in your bathtub, our Bath Repair Kit contain everything you need – without having to break the bank (or your bath even more!).
Our Bath Repair Kit is essentially liquid acrylic – which is the same as a bath melted down. The repair kit will repair chips, cracks, dents, splits and even holes in the surface of baths and shower trays. Repairs can be held on acrylic, plastic, stone resin, ceramic and enamel surfaces.
The Bath Repair Kit offers an invisible colour match. The kit comes matched to IW28 colour code which is a European white, which matches 90% of all bathroom suites. If you are unsure of your colour code, contact your bath manufacturer and they will be able to provide the correct code. If your ICI colour code is different to a 1W28, you would need to contact us and we can supply you with a kit manufactured to your ICI colour code.
Here are simple steps to repair the damage:
- Apply the putty to the hole from underneath the bath if possible. The Epoxy Putty will harden after 5 minutes – full strength after 24 hours.
