Apply a bead of clear silicon or plumber putty around the drain body and pass it through the drain hole. Also, apply plumber putty to the washer and slide it over the bottom of the drain body.
6. Apply putty to fix the rubber slip gasket over the drain vent.
7. Apply a generous bead of adhesive or waterproof silicone to the bottom of the tub and caulk around the edge of the tub.
