Man fantastic job. I need someone like you to fix my fiberglass bathtub. It takes time, patience and a lot of hard work. I have non of those traits available to me. But thanks for the video, I'll play it for the guy that's willing to tackle the job for me.

Hi Danny could you tell me what tou put on next are put the fiber on and rubbed it down what was the compound you put on next then you sprayed it with white that would be so helpful old lady having fun trying Mine was a cracked I have done the top and underneath the bath. I would be very greatfull Mandy B

I would have figured that would have been the time to get rid of the tub but I love what you're doing it looks good

Nice work Danny

Wow that is amazing work

Amazing! I also like your list of supplies.

Nice job. Euro glaze is so much easier than the body filler to work with for the final coats.

I had someone come repair a crack just like this on my bathtub, couple weeks later i stepped on it and it cracked. The guy said he would return and fix it again and this time drill holes around it and fill it with some foam. Is that going to help with me not cracking it when I’m showering , its hard for me shower and trying to avoid that area! The crack is on the floor.

Thank you for doing this. I found another video you did that has voice so products are noted. In this video, you use: 1. Bondo fiberglass resin and mat 2. the brown stuff - looks like 3 coats. question 1 - is the brown stuff the Bondo Glass? question 2 - in a different video with the voice and products, you had a 3rd step/product of the Bondo All-Purpose Putty. You have that listed as a product in this description, but I didn't see you use it. Does the Bondo All-Purpose Putty need to be used also, or is the fiberglass resin and glass enough? I have a 2 inch hole in a custom therapy fiberglass pool - we are removing a jet that keeps leaking and filling the hole like you show in this video. step 1 - the fiberglass resin and mat is needed structurally. But then, I am unsure on the glass and putty. question 3 - what does the Bondo glass do? and what does the all-purpose putty do? Thank you in advance and I hope you will reply.

Great job. But I would like to mention you only use/need like 8 of these items on your list to actually patch the hole(not talking about PPE and the fan). Seems like like you're adding extras to make more money off the links. Aside from PPE and the fan, you need: 1.sandpaper (or an electric sander if you want to speed up the job by 20 minutes) 2.fiber resin 3.bondo putty 4.fiberglass cloth 5.any cup/vessel that can stand up to solvents 6.Old paint brush 7.Special spray paint. 8.Something to spread evenly with Even with PPE that's like 14 out of the 23 you posted links for.

I live in a loft. It messes with me… the paranoia

I`ve just fitted a new bath. I wasn`t sure how solid it should be so have gone way over the top. Even wooden supports underneath and bracing on the wooden horizontal supports. Tons of glue and mastic round it. It`s going nowhere! Now we find that on filling the bath it has dozens of tiny holes in the fibreglass near the plug which are leaking through to the floor. My worry had been my plumbing leaking, not the damn bath. They are too small to notice until they leaked. The shop have offered us a replacement. It would ruin two weeks work to take it out so will try to fix myself. (Just a warning for anyone buying a new bath).

Just curious, how much did you charge a customer for the labour work?
