It will set ok, but will probably take a week or so. It will not last
very long. Next time you redo it, use silicone.

Next time you do it fill the bath with water first - it'll give you a
better, longer lasting seal. (Same applies if you use the sealant
strip mentioned in another message.)


I did that. It not a problem with it separating it just wont set!

Thanks,

The acrylic stuff can literally take weeks to cure and even then is
not satisfactory.

I would pull it off and remove the rest with water - should still be
soluble.

Then do again with a silicone sealer. Assuming that you have
reasonable warmth and humidity, it will cure in a few hours.
