The Refinishing Process-What We Do
At Tuff Tub Refinishing, we follow a basic 5-step resurfacing process to refinish or reglaze your bathtub, countertop, or sinks. While refinishing companies may have different techniques or products, the refinishing process is generally the same.
1. Clean and Prep Tub
First, we clean and scrub out all contaminants, including the removal of silicone caulking. Next, we make any initial repairs on the bottom and sides of the bathtub.
2. Site preparation
Because bathtub resurfacing is messy, we take the necessary steps to ensure that your bathroom is protected from overspray with plastic sheeting taped securely at the edges.
The bathtub refinishing process can produce vapors that may irritate, so make sure there is proper ventilation until the process is completed.
3. Sand & Repair
To ensure proper adherence to the reglazing, we first sand the existing coating adequately to ensure a good bond.
Any remaining cracks, chips, rust, or weak spots are removed as the last step to prepare for the primer.
4. Primer
A primer is then applied to the bathtub surface and allowed to dry.
5. Coating
Multiple coating layers are applied to reglaze and create a new waterproof surface. Once these coats dry, the sealer coat is used, and your refinishing project is complete.
The bathtub refinishing process is simple. The bathtub will be ready to use after 2-4 days, and now you have a new beautiful tub surface that will last for years!
