I made my own tile in the 80s super high fired stoneware. The soap dish was a typical mid 80s white cast off the wall soap dish. Just holds 1 bar of soap in the middle of the bathtub about 6 inches off the tun rim in middle of wall (full 3 side surround tile in cast iron tub /shower combo. Two days ago after 37 years it fell off the wall into my wife's hands. Its is intact and it looks like I must have thin set it in then grouted around it.(best guess) The original price of 4.99 still on the back.
what's the best way to reattach it. If I thin set again it will stick out to far. All the grout is still stuck to tile. I'm thinking a thin epoxy like JB weld marine or west systems epoxy. Something very thin. Then caulk around it to water proof it.?
any suggestions on a better way.
The backer board was called wonder board back in that day.
