How to get rid of the gaps between the bath and the wall without using a wizard in just 2 days

My wife's bath is in second place after the kitchen. It should be clean, comfortable and perfectly executed. To achieve this goal has been transformed by a master. However, after everything beginning to flow, we had to correct the situation yourself. Share advice based on their own experience.

Important: These tips apply to acrylic bath. Work carefully because any heavy object falling spoil the coating.

1. After installing the tub on legs and wall mounting is required to fill the bath with water at night. So she prosyadet finally accept the situation and later will not wobble.

2. Morning pour water on the bolts tighten the fasteners. Make sure the tub stands firmly without reeling.

3. Started to eliminate gaps between the bath and the wall.

I know of three ways:

plastic corner;

silicone;

curb tape.

The first method was unsuccessful. In contact with water the corner edges went up, and the water after bathing was on the floor. It was necessary to completely remove the fruits of labor of the master and do the job again. I decided to use the second and the third way in the complex.

Important: before framing edge silicone bath, perform the following steps. Completely remove the protective film of the bath, because it does not hold the silicone. Remove excess moisture, and then degrease the surface. Prepare cloths and napkins. Conveniently remove dirt toilet paper.

4. That the seams have turned out in neat, seal the masking tape or duct tape, "track" at the edge of the bathtub and the wall, thus protecting the surface from unwanted contact with silicone.

5. Using a special gun with silicone fill the space evenly. Straighten the seams with your finger dipped in soapy water, so they go smoother. Wait a few minutes and carefully remove the tape. The result is a beautiful smooth seam. According to the instructions, the silicone dry for 2 hours, but experience shows that it is better to give it to stand at least overnight. This ensures an excellent result.

6. Next, fasten tape-border, to enrich the shortcomings and will provide additional protection. Working gradually peels the protective layer of 15-20 cm and glue tape.

Important: Experienced people are advised to heat the adhesive base hairdryer. Due to the high temperature fixing curb happens efficiently and do not need to exert physical effort (pressure him).

All manipulations I spent a total of 2 days, but confident in the quality of their work. My wife is happy with the result, and it is - most importantly!
