Get your bathtub and shower refinished at the same time.

Yes. That said, the coating that we now use is low VOC and environmentally friendly. The new lower VOC coating results in a significantly lower smell that dissipates much quicker than older technology – without sacrificing any of the strength and durability our work is known for. We run a ventilation system out of the door or window to reduce the smell.

The finish that we apply is called an aliphatic acrylic polyurethane. It's a 2-part urethane invented by NASA several years ago. It is now used anywhere that a hard, long-lasting, durable finish is needed. Other examples would be airliners and oceanliners.The advantages of this finish over other products are:

• Resistance to abrasion and scratching (holds up to normal wear and tear)
• Impact resistance (won't crack or chip if you drop a shampoo bottle)
• Resistance to extreme temperatures
• Color retention (won't yellow like epoxy coatings)
• This finish has been modified for use in the resurfacing industry.

Yes, we can apply a permanent anti-slip texture to the bottom of your Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing for a small additional fee. Anti-slip will make your Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing safer, and because you will not need to use a bathmat, your new finish may last longer.

As with any surface, your new finish will eventually wear away. We provide a five-year guarantee, and you should expect 10+ years before the finish would need to be touched up or redone, if properly cared for.

Do not use abrasive cleaners like Comet or Ajax; even SoftScrub has some mild abrasives. However, you won't need to use abrasive cleaners since the new finish will be non-porous, and the dirt and grime should wipe away much easier than before. Use a "Safe for Acrylics" cleaner for regular cleaning. Many are available, such as Tilex and "Scrub Free" from Arm and Hammer. Leaving things in your Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing that let stagnant water pool is one of the easiest ways to ruin your finish. Please don't do it! You should repair leaky faucets immediately, and keep shampoo bottles, etc. off the Shower Refinishing or Bathtub Refinishing floor. You should also not use a rubber mat. If you pick up a rubber mat three days after you have used it, you will find that the surface underneath it is still wet. In addition, the rubber suction cups will constantly be pulling at the new finish.If you are going to use a bath mat, you should purchase a vinyl mat and remove the mat from the Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing after each use.

After thoroughly cleaning your Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing, we apply an acid to remove the gloss from the original finish and etch the surface. Millions of microscopic holes are opened on the original surface, allowing the new finish to penetrate the old surface and create a bond. After the acid etch, we fill in any significant chips or holes, then thoroughly clean and dry the Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing again. After that, we mask off the Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing and all the fixtures, hang plastic sheets, and put tarps on the floor. In effect, we create a spray booth in your bathroom.We then mix a colored resin with a catalyst. A chemical reaction takes place and the new finish begins to harden. We work fast because we only have a couple of hours to work with it while it is still a liquid. We apply the finish coat to the Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing using a spray system. It then penetrates and bonds to the old surface. Because we apply the new finish as a liquid, it molds to the old surface and fills in all of the pores, making the entire, hardened finish non-porous.The result is a finish that looks better, lasts longer, and cleans easier.

While many customers resurface their Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishings to change the color, most do so because it has lost the original finish. When that happens, the Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing surface becomes dull and difficult to keep clean. Over the years, all of the cleaning and water running over the Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing has worn away the original finish, revealing the porous material underneath. All of the dirt, grime, and hard water stains get trapped inside the pores of the exposed surface. That means you have to use abrasive cleaners and a lot of scrubbing to keep your Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing clean. As you can imagine, this only wears away the finish further. Surface Renew, in effect, applies a new finish coat to your Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing. We apply the new finish as a liquid, then it hardens. The result is a non-porous seal that looks better, lasts longer, and cleans much easier. Not only will you bring new life to your existing Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing, but refinishing is also massively cheaper than replacing it. In many cases, you can save thousands of dollars and not settle for a lesser quality Bathtub Refinishing or Shower Refinishing than your original.

If your Shower Refinishing has a Bathtub Refinishing in the bottom and the finish goes up onto the walls of the Shower Refinishing, you have a Bathtub Refinishing + Shower Refinishing combo. When we renew your tub, we’ll renew both the walls of the Shower Refinishing and the tub so you have one continuous finish.
