Think my glue is duff, sets in seconds which makes trying to true the tub an utter mission. Also the base tape is a bit narrower than the rim meaning you dont get the luxury of tell tales for quick alignment. Got one pretty good, but the other, reset and start again I think. Paper thin side walls don't help either, easily the hardest tub i've fitted before (only done maybe 12-15), hands are wrecked!
