Exactly. Because a tub replacement will cost: $cost of new tub $cost of demo-ing out the tile and sheetrock above the tub (when you remove the tile so you can pull the tub, it ruins the sheetrock underneath and you have to replace it) $cost of installing and hooking up the new tub (plumber) $cost of installing new sheetrock and tile Thank you, Classic Truck - when your intention is to 'refresh' the bathroom, not rebuild it, your instruction is priceless!

I like the cardboard & screw idea! I think I’d add a duplicate sandwiched layer of wire mesh hardware cloth (1/2” mesh or 1/4” mesh) against the metal tub simply for added support in case someone gets pounding around with a bucket or other hard object (horse farm and my bathtub gets used pretty roughly sometimes as a washtub) Beautiful job. I wish you were closer and could come do mine. Even with clear instructions like yours I’m sure I’ll screw it up somehow.

HEY CLASS! I am currently working on a similar repair! My problem was caused by me not using a silicone sealant on the overflow so every time someone took a bath and filled the water up above that it leaked behind the wall and then rusted-out the bottom left side of the tub where the flange is! First order of business I knocked off all the loose rust then hit it with Rust-Oleum Rust Reformer and let it dry! Then I hit it with Primer! Then I hit the entire tub with super-clean bleach vinegar mixture to get all of the residue out of the way! Now I'm going to mix my Bondo and start filling in the cracks! The best hint that I got from you was the idea of the screw through the cardboard as a backing! Stay tuned for the update if you give me a reply! 😅

Thank you for posting this. It will help with a really big Kohler cast iron whirlpool (master bath) tub where I removed all the jets. I removed all five jets because of all the nasty flakey stuff that came out every time I turned the jets on. It didn't make any difference how many times the tub was cycled with dishwashing soap and cleaned - after a couple of days the flakey black stuff was back. A real PITA. So I removed all the jets and the pump motor. A really big PITA. I discovered that all the jets were clean - all the flakey stuff was residing in the pump motor. Obviously, with the pump being permanently attached to the tub with all the plumbing hardware - one could not access the inside of the pump motor and clean it. Moral of this story - I will never, ever own another whirlpool tub again - PERIOD.

I like your technique. I’ve got a steel tub with your typical drain with rust around one side of it with a 1/8 in hole rusted through. The drain is stuck and can’t remove it. Was going to repair and reglaze it after my plumber removed the stuck drain for me but he says 1) not worth trying to remove the stuck drain from top and needs to open ceiling under tub to cut out and replace entire shoe and overflow and 2) patch repair of the hole and rust around the drain won’t last and may crack off when the new shoe and drain are installed. Not sure what to believe. Was thinking to try one more time to remove the stick drain by using hack saw to cut a notch and hit it with a cold chisel to see if it’ll rotate. move ahead and try. If it’s still stuck then move forward with plumber from under, patch, reglaze, and reinstall. If it doesn’t hold then think about replacing the tub or renovate the bath ($$$$). Appreciate any guidance and suggestions.

Then definitely will underneath drain cutout and replace and tub patch and reglaze. Hoping she holds.

What a awesome transformation, great work. What did use to paint it, if I can remember, you said you painted it, was it spray cans or did you use a gun and compressor??

1st bondo ... at Sherwin williams is called dura-glass ... very hard 2nd is Poly-Filler 710 (White) multitechproducts.com/poly-filler-710-white/ .... it sands very smooth and covers the dura glass so easier to cover when you paint it white ....and far as the primer i use from (integrity coatings ) with their wipe on adhesive bonding agent .....white epoxy from.... www.hawklabs.com/products-menu ....their low VOC high gloss white ...... as far as cost its my business so i get better prices ...... btw to use this you need a good HVLP tubine spray system .... hope that helps

@@missygraham313 morning .. on the dura glass bondo use 60 or 80 to shape your repair but the polly-fill (white) start finish with 220 it sands very smooth .... but you can go to 320 if you want but once 220 is done you'll probably be just fine

Classic Truck Addictions how long from start to finish did it take you to complete the job?

Joe Joe your still going to use the kitty hair right? If you just use a filler for something this big in the video you will have problems later. Bondo alone will not have the strength as the glass reinforced filler, the glass helps it maintain longevity!

The white poly fill you mentioned towards the end is just the all purpose white bondo?

Hi, I have thesame problem with my tub and I need to fix it. Is that all I need bongo glass and sand paper, and the finishing spark to fix it?

Thanks for your response. Can I email you? I might send you a couple pictures of this bathtub I have to do. You seem like you know what you're doing. You said you've done it more than once I guess? And something about one of the repairs still good after 12 years?
