How to paint a plastic shower base?

IMG_1591.jpeg

Hello I have an old shower that I have just repaired due to cracks. I went to my local Bunnings store and advised that due to the base being plastic any paint would just peel off. Wondering if there is any other options or do I need to go and buy a whole new shower?  Have uploaded the shower for reference.

Re: Painting plastic Shower base

Hello @rick6947 

 

Thanks for sharing your question about your shower tray. If you were to have your tray professionally resprayed the cost would probably be the same as getting a new shower and having it installed. Between the two options, I propose getting a new shower as you will have peace of mind that the shower and tray will not give way or leak as it is brand new. A repaired tray however will always be in danger of giving way as the repair is unpredictable and can't be guaranteed.  

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

 

Eric
