Okay, there we go. Jump out of the tub. Little hot. Little cold. Little shower. I don't see any water coming from the backside, man. Works like it's supposed to. All right. So, now we're going to use some dab quick seal plus. She bought almond easy water cleanup. This is the stuff that I like. Either silic either siliconized acrylic or adhesive caulk. I do not like to use silicone on this job just because you've seen how hard that was to get off, right? I want to know if this thing is leaking. So, I'll leave about a one inch gap in the bottom of this. If it's going to leak, I want to see it. I don't want it to be leaking in the wall. Grab a rag. I like a contractor sponge or a rag. This is what we got. We just I'm going to mold it, shape it all with my fingers anyway. You just want something to wipe this off with. Wish I had that caulking finger right now. All right, perfect. It's good to go. All right, we just leave that right like that. You know, we've got that all cked up. We've got that all cked up. And now we're good to go. Just give it some dry time and that's going to work out great. Well, this goes to show even older things can be repaired, right?
