Cramer S201AMZ Bath Touch Up Stick, alpine white , 12 ml

A year ago we had a plumber repairing a leaking toilet cistern in the bathroom and he put all his metal tools in the bath while he was working. Later we noticed that where his wrenches and spanners had been there were six or seven areas where the surface of the bath had been scraped, plus several scratches and chips all around the plughole area. This looked unsightly, but we didn't want to have the whole bath resurfaced or even a new bath because of a few scrapes. Then I found this product! It comes in a Tippex-like container and has its own brush. You simply shake it for 2 minutes and then paint it on the damaged areas. Several thin layers are best and it is easy to get just a small amount on the brush and dab it on where necessary. I found a good way to fill deeper chips is to dab a good blob of the paint on so that it fills the hole and then immediately wipe the excess off with some toilet paper. Although it looks a brilliant white when it is first put on, it darkens slightly as it dries so that you don't notice that it is there. The only downside is that you have to wait 4 days for it to really harden before putting hot water in the bath, but 4 days wait is better than buying a new bath. I was so pleased with the result that I put some on a cracked tile in our shower room and the crack is no longer noticeable, and I have also put some on a radiator where there was a small area of rust - which was easier than painting the whole radiator. There is a lot of the product and as you only use a very tiny amount at a time, it should last a long time (as long as the cap is screwed on tightly) should any future damage occur.

This was actually quite a good match for the colour of my sink, though somewhat more opaque . Guess this is to be expected when compared to ceramic with a top glaze. Easy to apply, but watch out for Excess liquid which runs down the brush and drips. The product shrinks back even after it appears to be dry so worth waiting a few days and topping up as necessary before sanding off and polishing. It gave me a repair which is not noticeable unless you are looking in place of a noticeable deep chip in ceramic. I'm pleased with the result.

I have an enamel bath that was damaged in small areas by people dropping the shower head on it. This really has helped made it look really nice again. It does seem to wear off though, so I’ve had to reapply it but it is pretty easy to do although it really smells strong and you have to not use the bath for a good few hours. Has lasted a long time and I have plenty left for touch ups. I went to some bathroom shops looking for this and they tried to sell me something for £35 so I was pleased to find this on amazon

This is like a bottle of white out fluid that typists might use and comes with a brush in the lid to paint it on with. It is a very white white, and stood out when I applied it to a cracked tap hole blanking cover in my kitchen sink, so I ended up having to paint the whole blanking cover rather than just the crack. It needs a really good shake before being applied and the painted area has to be kept dry for 4 days afterwards. It is also vulnerable to cleaning products and disinfectant. Overall it's OK but because the bright white shade of this product makes it stand out so much I think I will end up just buying a replacement tap hole blanking cover.

This is very easy to use. I was a little unsure as to whether it would be adequate for my repair job but I applied 5 thin layers and it has given a much better result than a more expensive product I have used in the past. It is interesting to note that on the repair around the plug hole the colour is a pretty good match and I am very pleased with it but on the lesser damaged repair by the taps the colour has not matched in very well at all! But overall for the cost and ease of use this is a very good product

Good product

Used this for a small 3mm shallow chip in ceramic shower tray (black base showing through). Very easy to use - after cleaning and drying the area I just put a small drop of the stuff in the chip and it filled the cavity nicely. Colour was slightly different when wet but dried pretty much identical to the white ceramic. Left it for 24 hours to cure and since then have we used the shower daily as normal. The touch-up still in place after several weeks, but I reasoned that even if it did not last for very long, it would be simple to repeat the process. The stick is small but would do a small chip dozens of times.

Be warned ! On some surfaces, particularly painted radiators and resurfaced bath the colour turns grey so DO a patch test first.
