The shower tray and its white topcoat has set nicely overnight. The sugar was vacuumed up and washed under the outside tap. The water flowed away very nicely so no unwanted build-up of water would not happen unless someone carelessly put their foot over the drain hole of course!! But we did have a small leak around the plastic pipe adapter inside the drain hole. The resin didn’t quite fill all the gap between the wooden hole and the plastic pipe even though we had taped up the opening etc. The lesson learnt here is that this kind of resin (polyester) is too thin and doesn’t stick and build up by itself. We applied some PU sealant in and around the plastic pipe up inside the drain hole to try and seal the leak. Tomorrow will tell!!
Finished shower tray
Another adjustment needed was the cold water feed coming up out of the floor which is currently a straight up shut-off valve but unfortunately we need it to do a right angle turn so the cold water can enter under the tray itself to connect to our heat exchanger. The afternoon was spend draining the hot water tank and blocking off the header tank to allow us to change the fitting.
