BabyDam Bath Barrier - No Need for a Baby Bath! (Blue)

Product Information

You can use the non-bathing end of your bath as a space to dry your little one or their baby bath toys. Use expanding foam: If the gap is larger or irregular in shape, you can use expanding foam filler. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, as foam expands as it dries. Trim the excess foam with a utility knife once it has fully cured, and then apply a layer of caulk over the foam for a finished look. The Bathwater Barrier creates a smaller space which gives both baby and parent reassurance by making it easier to keep baby safely within arms reach. Parents save time when filling the bath which also saves money on energy costs by just heating the amount of water needed.

Apply caulk: If the gap is relatively small, you can use caulk specifically designed for use in bathrooms or kitchens. Apply a continuous bead of caulk along the gap, making sure it fills the entire space. Smooth the caulk with a caulk smoothing tool or a damp cloth to create a neat finish. You can use any liquid nail adhesive you want as long as it is strong enough. This will set the quarter round around the bathtub. Here I have written an article on how to fix a broken bathtub faucet handle. Caulk is a sealing material that is made from different types of bases, such as silicon, acrylic latex, rubber, and polyurethane. This material is very effective to seal gaps between structures to prevent air, water, dust, or insects from getting in. Don’t have to worry about the tub spout being a danger - I set up the bath area away from the spout (see pic) How long should I wait for the repair to dry or cure before using the tub or applying additional finishes?See also Do You Need a Plastic Liner with a Fabric Shower Curtain? How To Install Quarter Round Around Bathtub? Choose a repair method: Depending on the size and cause of the gap, choose an appropriate repair method. Options may include using caulk, expanding foam, or installing a filler strip.

Assess the gap: Measure the width and depth of the gap between the tub and the floor to determine the extent of the problem.But, before I end this article, here is a small tip: you will find caulk of different colors. However, it is classier to go with the white one. It will shine well around your bathroom. It’s the only baby bath to grow with your child – simply change where you place the divider to make their bath space bigger. You should never put new caulk over old ones. That’s why the first step is to start with removing the old remaining caulks. Squeeze gently on the caulk gun’s trigger and fix the gap between tub and floor. After that, you can straighten the caulk using your finger. If you are using silicon-based caulk, don’t forget to wipe your fingers on a sponge or paper towel every time you straighten the caulk.
