Re: [A/S] What caulk to use for a 1979 shower stall? Caulking Caveat

["Daisy Welch" <jtdjtd@xxxxxxxx>]

Oliver is right as usual.

In my endlessly leaky '73 center bath shower, I got tired of 
it and drilled out all the rivets holding the pan to the 
wall. At least that's what I started to do. I quickly found 
they were mostly broken. I used a clear caulk that says it 
will stick to anything, but more important, I opened up the 
joint wide enough to stuff a lot of caulk in there, and then 
I put the rivets on again, and cleaned off the squished out 
stuff.  2,000 miles later, still OK.  I did the same thing 
to the curved joints on the wall.  So far, I dont think the 
metal slot connection leaks.

We would know this if our houses bumped and crashed around 
the way our trailers do.
