Re: I give up!
Looks like a good idea! I think if you have the room (looks like you have an extra inch or more of clearance above each tub), I'd probably put a piece of cardboard or a very thin sheet of plywood on the base of each shelf, then you can secure the flexwatt to the base of the shelf rather than to the tub itself. Also, it will help keep the heat where you want it by minimizing the dissipation between the wires of the shelves. Just a thought anyway...

Thanks for all the input! I am planning on getting thin wood to put under each tub, then put the flexwatt over that. I am so excited lol.

Just wanted to give you a heads up. Lowe's and Home Depot both carry a wonderful thin water resistant paneling type board for use in bathrooms. It's around $14 for a 4 X 8 sheet.
It comes in colors and textures, but both of mine carry smooth plain white as well. It's what my husband and I used for both of our new racks. It's cheap, smooth, thin, sturdy enough and water resistant in case of spills. One side is slick white, the other is like pressed paperboard.
Good job on coming up with a workable rack for yourself. If you find over time the tubs are not quite as clear as you'd like, you can easily put a plexiglas window in the front. You can use a heated hobby knife like the Versatool to cut a hole in the tub. Measure at least a 1" rim all the way around. Cut your plexiglas to fit on the inside. Use small flat screws and nuts to hold the plexi in place with the nuts on the outside and then run a bead of clear waterproof silicon around the edges on the inside to seal and prevent dirt and stuff from getting in between the plexi and tub. Let dry for 24 hours, and voila!
