you must be able to repair it with a fibreglass patch for a boat etc, but not sure how it will look
would a Cramer Bath Repair Kit be any good
would the fibre glass repair kits from halfords be any good

was thinking of using the cramer repair kit for the face of the bath so looks neat. Then the fibre glass repair kit for underneath to add stregth
You could repair the bath with a fibre glass kit, but do it from underneath the bath that way it will be waterproof. Than you could get a bath repair kit to make it look 'nice' on the bath side.

How many sheets of fibre glass and resin would you recomend using from underneath the bath?
You can build up various 'sheets' of fibre glass. As long as you make sure that you cover the fibre glass that you have placed on the bath with resin.
It tells you in the instructions that you need to over lap the 'sheet' of fibre glass.
The resin makes it water proof, the fibre glass olds it altogether.

be over lapping do you mean making each sheet of fibre glass I add a bit bigger then the last? Have read the instructions sounds ok I just wonder how many layers to add to make as strong as possible
Is the repair likely to last a long time if done right?
Once the resin has gone hard. It will be solid.
This will last longer than the rest of the bath.
What you can do is a test piece on a match box or even a plastic water bottle. Cut a hole in a plastic bottle then make a repair and test it the following morning.
