That's what I did as well when I installed our one piece shower. Let
it expand then be ready to set your shower right into the stuff.
Make sure tp step it down good.<br>

<div>A quick and fairly permanent solution to the flex in that
shower floor is to get a can or two of that expanding foam
insulation and blow it in under the shower floor. It will
expand to meet the bottom of the shower unit and support the
floor very well. Many plumbing contractors now do that as a
standard part of installation.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Flex Seal has been a miracle fixer
for me. I’ve used it as a temporary fix on strange
things like rain gutters, etc. In a non-antique
tractor related fix I used it as a temporary fix for
the pan of our Master bedroom shower. After about 25
years apparently the pan flexed enough due to poor
support underneath that it cracked. We paid someone to
fix it the first time. That lasted about a year and
came back in spades again. As long as the support
underneath isn’t right its never going to be
permanently fixed and our plan is to remodel the whole
Master Bathroom anyway in the next year or so after 28
years so was looking for a band aid until we take on
the whole project. Things have to be color coordinated
and all the female stuff. Anyway, I roughed up the
surface where the crack had developed again and
sprayed several heavy coats of the Flex-Seal waiting
for each coat to dry properly. Worked like a champ
even when the pan flexes way too much. I keep
anticipating that it is going to fail but it hasn’t
yet. Since we are gone for 5 months a year I’m now
thinking of drilling a couple small holes in the pan
and filling the underside of the pan with the spray
foam to give it more support and then since the Flex
Seal has worked so good just seal the holes I drill
with it. It should be thoroughly cured by the time we
get back. In my experience to date I highly recommend
Flex Seal. I don’t know how it would stand up to fuels
and lubricants but it has stood up to hot soapy water
and all 250lbs of me trying to make it fail. Ok, I’ll
admit I don’t step in the weak areas if I can avoid
it. But… we don’t have water leaking in the kitchen
pantry anymore. I’ve also used it on Garden tractor
shrouds, etc. Hasn’t failed me yet. I think one of the
keys to success is properly roughing up the surface
before application. . A miracle chemical. Anyone
used the foam trick under their shower pan to fill in
the support gaps after the shower is installed ?</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I noticed that the shifter boot
on my Allis C was showing some splits around the
top and more around the skirt. At some point I'll
pick up a new one but wanted to do a temp patch on
this one. I have a small can of that "Flex-Seal"
stuff on hand even though I don't have a rowboat
to glue back together. :-) It really is
extremely tough stuff.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anywho, I grabbed it and a 1"
foam brush and gave this boot a quick coat and it
looks and feels amazing. I will give the top
another coat to fill the cracks a bit more but it
is sealed well now. It actually looks much better
in person than in this picture. The stuff cures
very wet and shiny looking and the whitish looking
patches in the picture are really just
reflections.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I also dabbed a bit on a spot
on the tired steering wheel and decided that I
will patch the wheel with some JB-Weld then coat
it with the Flex Seal. Even though it looks wet
and slick it is an excellent grip surface and is
recommended for dipping tool handles.</p>
