My toilet roll holder has chipped, I have some of the chip but it has chipped in a way that means I can’t fix it perfectly by gluing it back. Would appreciate some advice on how I can repair it. Thanks!
Hello @maxi304
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your toilet roll holder.
I'm sorry to hear that your porcelain toilet roll holder has been chipped. In order to repair the damage, I propose attaching the large porcelain pieces that have come off the surface with superglue. I then suggest using https://www.bunnings.com.au/selleys-50g-knead-it-multi-purpose-epoxy-putty-multi-purpose_p1230040 to fill in the gaps. My best advice is to mix the putty very well in your hand to get a good consistency. Please mix only what you'll need and don't mix the entire container.
Fill the gaps in carefully by pushing the putty into cracks and mould and feather the surface with your thumb and fingers to get a smooth level finish. Your goal is to recreate the shape of the chipped section and getting a smooth surface. Once the putty cures you can use sandpaper to get an even smoother finish. Once you are happy with the final shape, wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth, make sure it is dry before sealing the surface. I suggest using https://www.bunnings.com.au/rust-oleum-13-3ml-white-tub-and-tile-touch-up-kit_p0396412 to finish the surface.
If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
