Cramer S203AMZ Ceramic / Enamel Repair Kit for Baths, Sinks and Counter Tops, Colour: Alpine White

Product Information

Followed instructions to cover 2 tiny chips. Product needed to go on twice with 1 day between. Result was excellent, I struggled to find the filled in chips needed to use my finger to find them. Great job.

Extremely competitively priced at Plumbworld. A must have for a very professional finish. Various profiles and sizes. Results were remarkable! So does anyone have any tips for using this kit? Or is there something better that the professionals use? Thanks for the advice - I'll try the repair again with more careful preparation when I have the chance :)

Cramer Kitchen & Bath Repair Kit Alpine White

I followed the instructions carefully and used ethyl alcohol to degrease a chip on a ceramic sink. I left the compound in place for 12 hours and then very slowly sandpapered the surface ...do not rush this bit or you can have pullout. I really took my time and then used the finest paper (supplied in the kit) which polishes the surface. The chip is virtually invisible. Needless to say I was pleased. Its a good product .but you really have to take your time. Works a treat without corroding the taps or your hands. It was recommended to me by the showroom we bought out bathroom suites from & I’ve used it for the last 6 years. For long-lasting repairs of impact damage and flaking on washbasins, kitchen sinks, shower trays and bath tubs with enamel, ceramic (porcelain) and acrylic surfaces. Bought this as the property I bought had been rented and the taps were in a right state but I've use this three times and there starting to look like new

alan_m - I didn't actually see the repair come off but guess that as it went from OK to chip exposed again near-instantaneously it must have come off in one piece rather than from the outside, so most likely better preparation is needed. I didn't treat the surface as the metal was exposed and appeared to have a fairly rough texture and to be in good condition so I just cleaned it with IPA cleaner, but I guess I should have cleaned it better at least. There is now a small amount of rust visible so I'll have to sand it off before filling again. Brilliant worked wonders on my taps they look brand new I would recommend this spray it’s fabulous thankyou plumbworldI only needed a tiny amount, so had to guess the proportions but it worked OK. I also found that I over sanded which left a depression so had to top up the filler, but that was fine. I've been trying to find a satisfactory way to repair a chipped area of enamel in a steel bath. The difficulty is that it's at the bottom of the bath next to the plughole so is constantly getting wet. One problem we have is that the it's our only bath and shower, so we do need to use it daily and removal of the waste pipe furniture for any prolonged period of time isn't therefore practical. The chip is right on an outside edge next to the plughole so would also be difficult to cover up while the paint is setting. I did the repair in the morning after the bath had been used and applied the first coat of paint as soon as it had set (using a hairdryer to speed up the process) so the paint had nearly 24 hours to dry, and we were careful to use the shower as little as possible for a few days. I sprayed on two more coats of paint on successive mornings after we had finished with the shower. Used this product to repair a small chip in an enameled steel bath. The chip was caused when a screwdriver was dropped blade first onto the bath !

One problem is that the filler and hardener have to be mixed in a ratio of 30:1. This is very difficult to judge particularly when mixing a small amount. Some form of measure would be useful. The only way to get a professional finish with silicone is to use this kit, forget 'wetted' fingers, masking tape and all the other rubbish that people have told you, this kit, if used correctly, will give a finish that only professional can obtain, without the mess which is normally associated with silicone.It took ages to decide to buy this product, after a mystery chip appeared in the new bath - it wasn't me guv!
