Sealing Sink Problems
Hello All
I'm having a mare trying to seal my sink, its one of those round bowls on a chrome wall bracket and has an exposed trap and waste pipe all in chrome. I have the following: large rubbery washer which is transparent. CP collar (which the bowl stands on) Black rubber washer White silicone washer chrome nut Pop up waste I have done the following as per instructions position the collar on the chrome wall bracket with the black rubbber washer on top. Position bowl ontop of collar push white silicone washer up waste body insert waste into sink push transparent washer onto waste body underneath sink and tighten up with chrome nut. For the life of me I cannot get a seal. The leak is coming from inside the waste and drips down the outside of the trap, I have just about tried everything. Any ideas, i've tried about 6 times now!!!!!! TIA Cheers Richard |

Seventh time lucky, put loads of silicone on the transparent washer and
left it for 40 minutes. Now next question. The chrome tube which screws into the waste and then fits into the top of the trap seems lose. I can tighten it up but the trap still slides up and down on this pipe, am I missing a part here? I thought by tightening it this would secure it but it looks to me as it will gradually fall off. Thanks for your reply! Cheers Richard |
Found it, looks like a tapered washer was missing put that in and now
it tightens. Cheers Richard |
