How to Fix a Chip in a Fiberglass Bathtub

Fiberglass bathtubs are durable, but sometimes get chipped and damaged. Even a small chip in your bathtub can look ugly and feel uncomfortable.

Steps to Fix a Chip in a Fiberglass Bathtub

1.  Clean the chipped area: Clean the chipped area with soap and water. Let the area dry.

2. Mask: Mask the area around the chip with plastic tape.

3. Ventilate the area: Open windows to ventilate the bathroom.

4. Prepare the epoxy mixture: Add thickener to the epoxy and stir it.

5. Chip repair: Apply the epoxy mixture to the chipped area with a paintbrush. Allow the epoxy to dry for five hours or more.

6. Smooth the surface: Once the epoxy is dry, smooth the surface with sandpaper.

7. The bathtub is ready for use after 24-hours.

Fiberglass chip repair is a do-it-yourself job, but hiring a professional ensures a durable job.
