Will this work well with a resurfaced fiberglass tub?

I am no expert, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. It dries clear and seems pretty easy to apply. I would not be afraid to use it on a resurfaced finish.

Sorry, we have only used it in fiberglass tubs. If it stains slightly I use clorox cleaner on it.

Hi Doug, I'm pretty certain it won't hurt the fiberglass in any way. The problem will be to have the stains exposed to a solution of super ironout for a long enough period of time for it to work completely. I principally use it to clean iron stains off of mineral specimens. I soak the specimens in a warm super ironout solution from 2 hours to overnight, depending. Good luck, Steve C.

Donna I think the concern with fiber glass tubs is that it might crush the tub. With the cushioning I mentioned & not over tightening I feel it will be fine. She loves hers & it's much better designed than another one I purchased a few years ago for my father. Hope this helps.

While our setup is not like yours, I'm sure the device would work well. If you have a jacuzzi, you'd better measure the side of the tub to make sure it's not too wide for the bar to clamp on. If the side of your tub where the bar will be clamped is fiberglass, you really have to be careful tightening so as not to crack the fiberglass.

It will work, for awhile. Fiberglass is not the right way to repair metal. Regardless of which fix you use you need to remove all of the rust and the preferred and proper way to repair metal is by welding in new metal. If you fiberglass patch it will not last. This technique is used by low quality shops that simply want something to look good long enough to sell it to some sucker.

I don't know because we used it on a porcelain covered steel tub. However, the walls were a composite fiberglass sheeting and so far it is sticking to both very well. Even if it gives me 3 years its worth it -- for so little cost I would replace it in a minute. If you are going to install it, wash down the area with a liquid cleaner, then wipe it with alcohol. It needs to be absolutely clean for the product to stick.

No...it's not for fiberglass, it's for porcelain tubs. Try googling 'fiberglass tub repair.'

Not positive but I can tell you that the tightening mechanism is very secure and it is on the bottom end of the Clamp. The screw tightens so well I would think it would be safe. I don't believe it would slide sideways. Remember you can't use this on a plastic or fiberglass tub.

If you extend the length of pipe and the holes in the tub match the width of the hot and cold connections it will work.

I dabbed some on a fiberglass tub that has a broken corner. There is no problem as far as laying it. But I doubt that a repair can be made invisible even if you match the color and the sheen, unless you blend it in like the body shop guys do it. (you'd need to spray a special finish- Some companies do that for cast iron tubs but I do not know for fiberglass)) I would make the same comment for appliance repairs). I did a fair job with multiple coats, fine Wet-n-Dry sand paper in different grades (360, 600, 1200) and patience. Rubbing compounds might help with blending the repair with the surroundings. I think that Marissa's comment is a good idea. Mine is a general idea on spot repairs. I dabbed some on a fiberglass tub that has a broken corner. There is no problem as far as laying it.

Yes, you can. I have it on my fiberglass tub. Make sure it is in a good location where the sides of the tub are flat. Tighten bolts firmly. We have used it for 1 year now.

I used it on fiberglass and it works very well. I wound up buying two bottles because I did a bad job of applying it. After the second- and much better coat - I find it much easier get in and out of the shower now. I really like it.

No, I have not. The tub is oval shaped. It would depend on the shape of the galvanized tub.

Yes, it is OK to use with a fiberglass tub. My tub is fiberglass and I've been using this for about a year. No problem.

We have had fiberglass tubs before and the current tub is steel. I don't believe it would be safe to use on fiberglass because if you don't tighten the screw tight and secure, it wouldn't be of any value for safety. I believe it might damage a fiberglass tub.
