Hi All,
I am working on finishing my basement and just installed a one piece fiberglass tub. I am having trouble getting the rubber washer to seal to the bottom of the tub due to a chunk missing from the fiberglass around the opening on the bottom.
I wish I would have noticed it before I had the tub set in mortar, so I could get at it a bit easier. But since I'm past that point, what are my options? Is there some way I can fill in the missing piece in the fiberglass? Do I sand it with my palm sander until it is sanded out? I'm afraid sanding it would make the fiberglass around the drain pretty thin. Any other ideas/options?
BTW, this is my first post here. I really appreciate the forum and have found a lot of helpful posts for other things I've done.
Thanks,
Garrett
