But you can have it re-glazed, or re-faced depending on the type of bath tub you have. Leave it to a professional, so you do not end up with a bigger, more expensive mess than just calling them in, in the first place.Can you spray paint a bath tub?
Please look up bathtub refinishers in your area. The kits that you can buy can possibly make your units worst, and in the end costing you much more than what you would have spent calling a Refinishing company.
A couple of facts to remember:
If you don't have a prep, clean surface than your surface is going to peel.
Porcelain tubs have to be etched. No primers are going to do it completely.
Tub liners cost a lot more to install, but they have there problems. They use a thick glue that tends to over time have low spots, should water get in you will have a mushy mess under your toes. When the seals around the drain goes then the water comes into the liner causing possible rust, mold, etc.
To get you tub refinished you are looking at about 275-475 the process should take about 2-3 hours (depends on condition) It is worth having a longer warranty and piece of mind that it will be done correctly.
Many guarantee the work for three years. The tub maker normal warranty is 1 year. Look up your BBB and look under tub refinishing. In most cases your tub will be ready in 24 hours.
Ask your self. Would I clean my new car with that?
As a rule of thumb, you only want to use cleaners marked with the approval for acrylic use on your newly refinished surface. Any cleaner used with bleach will yellow and will damage the new or refinished product.
