Bathtubs, with time, lose their initial shine and appear dull. Instead of buying one, simply invest in a good paint to bring the shine back on. This applies in instances when you feel the color no longer excites you and need a different one on your tub. No matter the case, here are some tips for using fiberglass bathtub paint.
Make sure the tub is thoroughly clean before painting. Ensure that all stuck dirt and grime comes out. Also, use fine-grit sandpaper or a ball of fine steel wool to create a rougher surface for the paint to stick to well. Be sure to read the instructions of the paint manufacturer and apply accordingly.
Once you have applied the first coat, wait until it is dry before applying the second coat. All this while, ensure there is proper ventilation in the room and wear a respirator to protect yourself from the fumes.
