Congratulations! You’ve chosen to refinish your bathtub, giving it a brand-new look and feel without the cost and hassle of replacement. But how do you ensure your refinished tub stays in pristine condition for years to come? Proper care and maintenance are key.
Here’s our ultimate guide to keeping your refinished bathtub looking as flawless as the day it was restored.
1. Wait Before Using Your Refinished Bathtub
After refinishing, your bathtub needs time to fully cure. While our advanced, durable pour-on enamel dries quickly, we recommend waiting at least 24 hours before using the tub. This ensures the finish sets properly, maximizing durability and maintaining that mirror-like shine for years to come.
2. Use Gentle, Non-Abrasive Cleaners
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing tools can damage the smooth, mirror-like finish of your refinished tub. Instead, use:
- A soft sponge or microfiber cloth.
- Non-abrasive cleaners like dish soap or products labeled “safe for refinished surfaces.”
Avoid products with bleach, ammonia, or acidic ingredients, as these can weaken the coating over time and dull the glossy finish.
3. Keep It Dry When Not in Use (Optional)
While keeping your tub dry after use is a good habit, our advanced refinishing method is designed to resist constant moisture exposure. This means that minor faucet leaks or small amounts of standing water won’t damage the coating or lead to peeling – a significant advantage over traditional refinishing methods.
That said, regularly wiping your tub down will help maintain its shiny, mirror-like appearance.
4. Avoid Heavy Impact
Refinished bathtubs are durable but not indestructible. Avoid dropping heavy items like shampoo bottles, soap dishes, or cleaning tools, as this can cause chips or cracks.
If damage does occur, don’t worry – minor chips or cracks can often be repaired without refinishing the entire tub. Contact us for quick touch-ups.
5. Bath Mats with Suction Cups? No Problem!
One of the unique advantages of our refinishing process is that our thick, durable coating is designed to handle bath mats with suction cups.
Unlike traditional refinishing methods, which often advise against suction cups due to the risk of peeling, our materials provide superior adhesion and durability, ensuring your bath mat stays secure without damaging the finish.
This added benefit makes our refinishing method ideal for families, rentals, and multi-use properties.
6. No Worries About Faucet Leaks
Our innovative refinishing method stands out because it can handle constant moisture exposure. Faucet drips or small leaks won’t damage the surface of your tub or cause peeling.
For landlords and homeowners alike, this durability is a game-changer, reducing the risk of costly repairs due to maintenance issues.
7. Retain That Mirror-Like Shine for Years
One of the biggest benefits of our pour-on refinishing method is the unmatched mirror-like gloss it provides.
Unlike traditional spray-on methods, our finish is not only thicker and more durable but also maintains a smooth, polished surface that reflects light beautifully. With the right care, your bathtub will keep its luxurious, like-new shine for years.
8. Perfect for Rental Properties
For landlords, refinishing is a cost-effective solution for keeping bathtubs looking brand new between tenants. Our non-toxic, odorless process means that tenants can remain in the home during refinishing, saving time and hassle.
Plus, our unique coating allows the safe use of suction-cup mats, making it a perfect choice for multi-tenant properties where safety and durability are top priorities.
