Under normal circumstances a foreign sealer is not needed (i.e. silicone). Get a new seal and make sure you tighten the screws very tight on the clamp. I take a pair of pliers and hold the clamp while turning the screw with a large slotted driver; repeat for the other clamp. I usually tighten them a little bit at a time, working between both making sure the seal is positive around the tub, instead of being stronger on one side than the other. Good luck, Ben | ||
