I have just .....

[Mk2Jo]

.... put some sealant around my old bath and sink and I have come to the conclusion that I should stick to my office job It looks totally shite but hopefully it will keep the water from running down the walls in the kitchen when the kids are in the shower until I can afford to replace the bathroom suite and Marky4 is free to fit it for me

 

Oh why do I start these jobs at 11.30 at night

[Burns]

hehe, lets it dry overnight jo, keep telling yourself that

 

did you use the old wet finger round the edge trick?

[Mk2Jo]

Yep, did the wet finger and the wet toilet paper (but it stuck and I had to pick the bits off lol), then when I put the paper down the loo it stuck to the pan and now I got sealant on the pan ... ...mate ... it went from bad to worse

 

I hate being female sometimes .... talk about feckin useless

[Burns]

sounds like you had a great time there

[Danmex]

Toilet roll Thats day one basics Jo, fingers only

[Twinkle]

let it dry peel it off, clean the residue with meths and use a stick on seal available from most diy shops jo, and do it with the bath full of water

[Danmex]

and do it with the bath full of water

You said you only ever bath in Evian, as it keeps your skin so young looking

bloody hell twink, i was just eating breakfast and everything

[Mk2Jo]

lol Cheers for that Twink .... I did actually fill the bath with water first ... that's about the only thing I did get right

 

Well, this morning it has gone off and looks like a watertight seal but I think I will try to scrape some off and neaten it up a bit or ..... just wait for a proper job to be done when I change the bathroom ... it's that horrible avocado/green disgusting suite - must've been in the house since new which was about 30 years ago

sorry m8 am just drinking my horlicks then off to bed, gives a clue to the sort of shift i had

[caprifan]

....why do you fill the bath with water ??

[Twinkle]

water and a person makes a lot of weight and the bath will sink slightly due to this, if you do it with out the weight in it the first time you have a bath the seal may be torn
