Bathworks Bathtub Refinishing Kit; Premium 20 oz; Tub; Tile; Wall Surround; 24 Hour Dry time; High Gloss Resin Almond

This product was pretty easy to use. Follow the instructions carefully! I would paint from the top to the bottom though, instructions are from bottom to top. This left a few paint drips that dried that way. Not a huge deal, but it would make it look professionally done without them. Finish seems to be quite durable- time will tell. This is the second time that this tub has been refinished, the last time someone put stickers on the tub when the paint was wet and I hated them! We did a lot of prepping by scraping and sanding the stickers off and sanding smooth all of the blemishes. You will need a good fan in the window or room as the smell is strong. We also changed the color from tan to white without any trouble or bleed through from the old color. Overall very happy with this product and would recommend for the DIY people!

I used it on my tub. Follow the instructions which were very clear and precise and even waited for 3 days for to be completely dry actually it was dry after the second day like the package said it would. I'm going to purchase another box and do my tile in the tub. Awesome product and very easy to use,!

TLDR: I used this for a NON-bathroom application and am pleased with the results. if you are using this on a bathroom tub, shower, or sink, YMMV depending how scrupulous you are about the prep and application processes.The utility room of my 1941 house features a large double concrete sink that showed every bit of its age, with concrete loss, pitting, and staining. This sink serves as a drain for both the HVAC system and the clothes washer, and is also where we wash up after messy outdoor projects, so it is constantly exposed to water and dirt. Previous owners attempted to fix its appearance with patches and paints that just looked worse than the original surface and crumbled, bubbled or peeled away. So to start, I had to fill the cracks and re-finish the bottom of one side of the sink with a concrete epoxy product. That product worked very well, but that left me with the problem of how to then completely recover the inside surfaces on both sides with something waterproof that would not only stand up to abuse but also look decent. There are very few paint products out there that promised to do what I knew this sink needed. I considered many options, like concrete paints, epoxy garage paints, etc., and nothing really fit the bill for strength.BathWorks to the rescue. It's taken two purchases/two kits to get enough product to thoroughly coat and re-coat my sink, but I'm pleased with how it has performed. However, I was working in a rough area and didn't feel the need to be as scrupulous with the application as someone applying this in their bathroom. What *is* essential: an immaculately clean, bone dry, and dust- and grit-free surface. Because my concrete surface was already rough and porous, I was able to get away with *not* using the turpentine-like primer, etching compound, and sandpaper. I did take a great deal more care with the mixing and application of the white epoxy paint, but still experienced some drips and runs. I don't mind those drips because this is a utility room and I wanted a clean, waterproof surface, not a perfect one. I don't have ventilation in the space so speed was my priority!My sink was more or less dry to the touch after 24 hours, but I would advise a good 48 hours or more to be sure. Now that it's been double-coated, the finish is waterproof *and* can easily be cleaned up with a soft sponge or towel and plain soap. I strongly advise not using abrasive sponges or gritty cleansers on the painted surface.If you are using this in a bathroom on a fiberglass or ceramic sink, shower, or tub, it is **absolutely essential** to follow the prep instructions to a tee, AND exercise extreme care and caution with the brushing/daubing and rolling process. GO SLOW, don't be tempted to over-load your sponge brush or roller, and monitor for drips as you go. Be ready to gently roll them out *before* they start drying. If you have to, you can later lightly sand down a drip, carefully clean up the dust, and reapply.Need to know: This stuff stinks to high heaven and is toxic. Excellent ventilation and a respirator mask are VITAL essentials. Keep children and animals well away!

I used this product to coat an old porcelain tub that was harvest gold. I researched many refinishing products and decided that Bathworks met all my criteria for meeting my objectives. I was most concerned about the application process. Spraying, pouring, brushing, rolling were the choices. The best for me was rolling with a foam roller. I had no issues with the odor or anything associated with the application. I spent 3 days cleaning the tub and used EZ Etch for preparation. The EZ Etch is a must. Its recommended but it really is needed. I talked with a person at Sherwin Williams and he agreed that it is great stuff and strongly recommended I use it. Cleaning is 90% of the process. I've developed ceramic paints for them and for good adherence I had to develop a cleaner and primer. Once the tub was perfectly clean the application was simple. Just roll it on as their video suggest. Follow the instructions and don't rush you have enough time to coat the tub. Don't put too much paint on the roller but just enough to get coverage. Don't dry roll. For the second coat don't overdue the paint or it will run on the straight sides. Since this is a self leveling paint if you put too much paint on the second coat you will see runs develop. My advice is to go over them without adding more paint to the roller or it will get worse. This is all about technique and if you get runs or fisheye etc it's not the products fault but your own. That said, I did develop a few runs and decided to leave it alone. Again it's self leveling paint and I hoped they would spread out. Well after a few days the runs were were close to gone and unnoticed. Then let the paint cure. I left for 30 days without use. I have 3 baths. The paint dried rock hard and looks great. It adhered well, very glossy and looks first class. I've decided to do another tube with this product but this time I know I can avoid any runs since I believe I have a better understanding of the application process. It's not hard just time consuming. Researching was the most frustrating part and I'm glad I chose the right product. Good luck. One suggestion on the video, please add a troubleshooting in it as to how to deal with runs. That would have helped me a bunch.

I used this on my tub, and I experienced the drips and slag like the other reviews. I plan to let it cure for 30 days. But the fumes … so bad. I am going to a hotel for the night in hopes of it getting better after 24 hours.

Im thrilled with the outcome. I used it for the basins of a double vanity only so I could not use the roller. My opinion is based on brushing it on. Though it's far from perfect I am extremely satisfied with the outcome and appearance. It gives my sinks the look of very old first porcelain attempts and goes well with the antique mirror I use.
