Solid surface sink repair is one of those things most homeowners will never have to worry about. If you are one of the exceptions to that rule, you should know a few things about how to repair your sink.
The first thing is that if the repair you need is for a crack in the sink, you don’t need a repair, you need a sink replacement. When a solid surface sink cracks, there is no reliable or attractive way to repair a crack in one of these sinks. You can’t apply a magic potion to it, there’s no glue to make it go away and anything that isn’t a complete replacement is a total waste of money and won’t stay fixed, will crack again and will usually be even bigger than the original. original crack.
Now, if the repair you need is a chip or a scratch or even a stubborn stain, you’re in luck. In most cases, these issues can be resolved by someone experienced in solid surface repairs and finishes. These things can usually be resolved by vigorous sanding with a sander, or in some cases even hand sanding with a piece of sandpaper. In fact, for minor chips, scratches, and stains, most homeowners could do these repairs themselves.
The only problem with that is that most homeowners wouldn’t even dream of breaking up their expensive solid surface sink with some rough sandpaper. It is probably a wise decision because if they are not used to working with the material, the results they obtain may be less than satisfactory for them.
