I have a crack in my tub in the house, I used etrnabond patch for temporary
repair, I could not find any type of permanent repair. The tub in the house and trailer tub are made from same material. I will have to replace tub to make
an effective permanent repair. I suspect the same remedy will be required for
your tub.

IF it is a fiberglass tub, you can fix it with a repair kit, if it is not then you may have to replace it.

Pick up a can of Tiger Hair auto-body filler from a Napa store, if you do not see it on the shelf ask. The filler will adhere to everything except porcelain.

I had the same problem in my previous trailer. I found a kit made specificaly for tub and shower repair. I purchased it at Lowes. The tricky part is mixing the resin to match your color and once you add the hardener,you need to work fast because the material sets up quickly

I would replace it with a better quality tub. A hidden water leak can end up being much more expensive. A new Tub is only about $100.
