Bathtub Refinishing
Bathtub Refinishing is not the same thing as bathtub painting. It's tragic that so many consumers are being misled and it's discouraging to see the same epoxy kits sold in home improvement stores that fail every single time. It's not even a question of "IF" but "How Soon" and when they peel the consumer will take the blame! They will think "If I would have let it set up an extra day" or "If I would have prepared the surface better" well I want to promise you that the only way it was going to continue to last is if you never used it and never deep cleaned it!
Bathtub Refinishing is not Rocket science
Bathtub refinishing is not rocket science. This is a partially true statement but we did borrow some of the aerospace coating technology. Silane, for example was invented by the aerospace industry for the harshness of high altitude flying and space travel. It forms a bond on a molecular level so the paint stays put and looks good.
However, not all silanes are created equal just like the word paint can describe everything from water colors to oil base and epoxy paint. High Quality silane is expensive and if it was not used by a professional you would never know it until several weeks later... as the paint started peeling off! I say paint because If I were a betting man I would lay odds that they used Epoxy or Acrylic Urethane paint.

- I etch the bathtub or tile to create microscopic scratches and open pores in the surface.
- Then I hand rub the silane molecular bonding agent into the pores
- I apply the Fluoropolymer coating so it is integrated and chemically bonded into the old surface. This has a life expectancy of over 20 years and is backed by an 8 year transferable warranty!
