does self re-enamleing your bath tub really work?

Answer 1

They make it look so easy in the TV shows but without the correct tools and alot of confidence you can do it too slow and make a right mess. If its an old / expensive suite i would recommend having it done professionally. If you do try to do it yourself be confident, assured, even and quick.
Good LUCK.

I work in a school doing year-around work and 3 years ago I put new enamel on 2 sinks and they still look great. I didn't have trouble with anything but the smell. I opened windows and had a fan going, but still made me sick and had to have a guy help me out, taking turns to get away from the fumes! Good luck.

Answer 4

If you follow all directions to the tee it will be nice for a while. Most tub finishes are baked on. You cannot do this. Prep is the most important step. If you slack off on it, you might as well not do it.
