Bath sprung a leak this morning where the sealant has got damaged (scrubbed too hard cleaning it!). Manifested itself with a wet ceiling below! Took the side off the bath and it's definately from the area which I suspected.
Been out and bought some new sealant and will apply it tonight.
Trouble is, it doesn't say how long to leave it to dry, nor does it say whether I should empty the bathful of water I am supposed to put in the bath for weight straight after the sealant is applied or after it is dry.
The best it will get it 12 hours, as I need to shower in the morning for work so unfortunately can't give it any longer. Is this likely to be a good duration, and what will speed it up - heat, cool, fan etc.?
And if this is not enough time, will it be enough to be temporary so it doesn't leak again in the morning, so that I can rip it off again another day when I can leave it longer and re-do it?
Thanks
