The unfortunate thing about this is that the dust doesn't just sweep up. Our hallway was coated with spray dust, as well as our bedroom that is down the hallway. Pretty much anything that you value do not have uncovered (our screwdriver will never be the same). This is not even CLOSE to enough masking off. This is where I learned my very big first lesson with this stuff. From there you mask everything off (we removed all of our caulk and fixtures but it is not necessary). The process begins by cleaning everything with a powder solution, provided in the kit, that you mix with water, then rubbing everything with steel wool, which is also provided, then repeating that process three times. My experience with the spray is not a very good one.įirst off let's reminisce what our bathtub looked like before. (One box is supposed to be enough to cover one standard bathtub.) We bought two boxes knowing that we were doing the bathtub and the tile around the tub. I figured that the spray would give the best finish, so that's what we went with, even though it was a bit more expensive. While at the store there were two options for this product, a spray on or a paint on. That product was Homax Tub and Sink Refinishing Kit. (which I found out later only has mediocre reviews). We wanted to start our tub next day, so we picked up whatever our local hardware store had. Originally the product I found online was Rustoleum's Tub and Tile Refinishing Kit (which has great reviews) but they did not carry it anywhere local in stock. So I found a product to refinish the tub instead.

When we decided that we wanted to remodel our bathroom, but on a very tight budget, it meant we could not replace our tub, which would have meant replacing all of our tile as well. The bathroom remodel it still in paint mode, so today I'm going to discuss my experience with refinishing our bathtub.
