    Surface crack in new Vikrell shower wall
    I just bought and installed a new replacement (4-piece) Sterling shower unit with Vikrell walls. A slight surface dimple/indentation (5 mm in diameter) was discovered on one of the walls after installation was complete. The crack has not gone all the way through the shower wall.

    How can I fix/repair/seal the crack so it won't leak before I use it?
