Honestly, those repair kits are kinda hit or miss. I’ve seen them work alright for tiny chips, but once there’s a crack, especially in a spot that gets a lot of water, it’s basically just a temporary bandage. Sometimes you get lucky, but most of the time, moisture sneaks in and the problem just grows. If you ever try another kit, sanding and cleaning the area like your life depends on it helps a bit... but yeah, sometimes it’s just time to bite the bullet and swap the sink. Cheaper in the long run than fighting with it every few months.

- Gotta say, I’ve had better luck than most with those repair kits—maybe I’m just stubborn or cheap, but I’ve stretched a cracked bathroom sink for almost two years now.
- Key for me: dry the area overnight with a fan before applying anything. Moisture’s the real killer.
- Not saying it’s a forever fix, but if you’re not ready to drop cash on a new sink, it can buy you time.
- Swapping the sink is definitely the “clean” solution, but sometimes you just wanna see how far you can push it, y’know?
