Ok so im trying to update my bathroom..... I love my bathtub and dont want to replace it but the seams on it between the tub and the wall are horrid. I have an idea for what i want to do but not sure of how to fill in or hode the seams. I was thinking of some sort of filler or something i can use to make the seams blend in and transition between tub and wall. More smoothly..... But im not sure ......does anyone have any idea what to use for that or if theres a better way to cover the seams or get rid of them without having to.take anything extra down.....

I feel your pain, having HAD an acrylic tub that the caulk would not work.
All recommendations by so-called experts were wrong. I think dissimilar materials expand and shrink at different rates.
Finally after 19 years of struggling I bit the bullet....doing a remodel.
A walk-in shower with all new designer tile with corner bench and nice sliding doors. No caulk, all grouted, all solid and clean. $8000 incl some electrical work (switches, light, heater, vent).

Good luck!
Steve
