Repair hole in bathroom sink

[Crazycora]

The air freshener that I use in the tt leaked out in the sink melting a hole in the sink ( not all the way through) it was soft so I tried smoothing it. it is Harding again but is there something to repair it completely so sink will be smooth again? Don’t want any chance of leaking Thanks for any help Ann

You may want to try epoxy, which is readily available at any hardware store or Lowe's and Home Depot. You may be able to try and color match as well.

Can You share what type of air freshener you were using?

I’ve never heard of this before.

Thanks!

x2 on replacing the sink. Might save a lot of time and frustration in the long run. May be pretty hard trying to match a perfect color. Just my opinion!

I had one of those glade plug in air freshener that I unplugged and threw in my plastic kitchen sink. The liquid leaked out and ate the plastic in a few spots.

I don't know what's in that stuff but plastic is not its friend.

Years ago we dropped one, and it broke on the linoleum floor in our bathroom. I did not think much about it, I wiped it up, and went to work. Came home and the white linoleum, turned yellow, where the fluid had landed.

Bottom line is the kitchen and bath sinks installed in TT's are just a step above recycled milk jugs. We had 2 corners in the kitchen sink fracture when DW placed a small coffee maker and a few other counter top items in the sink for travel out/back. I used JB Weld to temporarily mend the broken corners and backed the repair from below with Eternabond tape. Worked and got us thru the rest of our 6 week trip to TX last year. Replaced the sink when we got home with a stainless unit I purchased on Amazon.

The oem sinks are not worth saving and should be replaced.

The air freshener I was using was a Glade plug in Learned my lesson I’ll just use my diffuser from now own. We will be replacing the sink. Yes stay away from air fresheners they’re not RV friendly on any level Thanks

Keep some wood strike anywhere matches in the bathroom. Strike one when needed to "clear the air". Has the added benefit of being useful for lighting things like camp fires or BBQ's in a pinch. Although, FWIW, I guess they will also melt a plastic sink if dropped while "activated".
