Tub Overflow, Hardware & Caulk Removal: Many, bathtub refinishers will not cut out or remove your caulking or even the overflow during refinishing? Many will just refinish, right over it.
Removal of your old caulking should absolutely be removed and the overflow plate when possible, (some are threaded on & can’t be removed due to being seized). And in some cases, the overflow screws are seized as well. Escutcheons on your ceramic tile walls and bathtub drain removal provides a better looking and overall higher-performing finished job, by having the new tub coating sealed under the hardware.
All images open in a light-box for larger view.
Should you have a failed coating on your tub or tile. Removal is required: This is a very critical factor, that you should pay attention to, which few tub refinishers will do?
If your tub-tile coating is peeling, it should be stripped off by applying a chemical paint stripper to remove the failed coating down to the original surface. Why?… You wouldn’t put new shinglings on your house over rotten wood? of course not, I hope? Most tub tile refinishing companies will only sand around the failed peeling area and apply their coating over the remainder of the failed coating.
This is a poor choice and a bad shortcut, that we will not do. Always be sure anyone you choose, removes all of the failed coatings before applying a new tub or tile reglazing.
So let’s look at why don’t all Tampa Florida Refinishing Contractors strip off the failed peeling coatings? They are more interested in getting the job, than doing it right. They quoted you a low ball price and chemical stripper is expensive and adds one or more hours to the job. The discount refinishers are looking for all the shortcuts they can. Plus using a chemical stripper requires additional safety and protective equipment.
Etching The Tubs Surface: Why don’t refinishers etch the surface? Etching provides mechanic adhesion allowing the coating a place to “Grip on too” porcelain & enameled tubs cannot be etched by sanding as acrylic and fiberglass tubs can. An acid solution must be used and care is taken to avoid damaging surrounding areas.
Not etching is again one of the shortcuts they take. When asked about this they’ll use anti-logic to convince you their doing you a favor. Etching cleans and creates a bonding surface, critical for lasting performance. Even big franchises like Miracle Method short the process. In this video I prove the point beyond doubt.
If they do fill the chips many use cheap Bondo filler instead of marine grade polyester, which is completely waterproof…
Why don’t they? Cost… cheap price means, cheap materials every time.
- Your bathroom will be coated and damaged by this practice.
- Another issue is improper ventilation or none at all?
- Ventilation equipment pulls the chemical odors out from the bathroom and exhaust them outside.
- Some use a box fan not rated of flammable exhausting. Others use inadequate small units which don’t provide enough power.
I recommend the 3000 Cubic foot per minute ventilation and always recommend exhausting to a window away from the bathroom.
High-quality Silane can be applied before the coating or even added to the coating to help form a permanent bond. Silane adhesion promoters are used in the Aero Space sector to keep coatings on in absolute zero, to re-entry temperatures.
Again often not used… Why? Ingorant of the chemistry, or again cost… cheap price = cheap job.
Bonding Primer: is the foundation of a coating system. Seals the tub or tile surface and provides a uniform color and surface treatment for the protective topcoat to attach to. An important factor when searching for a Tampa Florida Tub Tile Refinishing Contractor.
With Etching – Silane – Primer, you get what I affectionately call “Triple Adhesion” for truly long-lasting performance.
Different Companies Bath Tub Refinishing Coatings Cure Between 4 And 48 Hours… Why?
TubPotion #10 Our Aliphatic (non-yellowing) high-performance polyester catalyst. Creates a chemical reaction in our bathtub refinishing coatings, allowing them to achieve full cure in just 24 hours.
Which is the perfect balance in a set time. for you and the coating in convenience and durability.
*Beware of bathtub refinishers touting 4 to 12-hour cure, they’re using an accelerator in the polyurethane that makes the coatings brittle and chip easily and which I don’t recommend.
The 48-hour cure is an epoxy that is slow to set up. Yellow with time and tend to be easily damaged. Nor do they provide the texture-free porcelain look of TubPotion polyester coatings.
Coatings Are Rated For Different Applications Such As:
- Immersion coatings for constant water contact – not concerned with aesthetics or gloss.
- Graffiti coatings provides a Teflon like surface, preventing graffiti from sticking.
- Marine coatings which are geared toward salt, UV exposure and weather conditions.
- Automotive coatings geared for good looks & reasonable durability.
- Industrial coatings for equipment rated for high durability over looks.
- Friction coats rated for high abrasion resistance and strength.
After Working With Coatings Engineers… I was able to develop a polyester polyurethane hybrid tub – tile – countertop coating system that gave us the best of all worlds –
- Teflon like additive repels water, makes our coating non-stick graffiti proof.
- Capable of handling water immersion without peeling.
- Weather UV resistant so it won’t yellow over time.
- Extreme durability for years of lasting use.
- High friction & scratch resistance, holds up to your family use.
- All while providing flat as glass good looks and high gloss.
- Hygienic sanitary non-porous surface which is easily cleaned.
The closest a coating could possibly come to the look and feel of real porcelain. Convenient 24-hour cure-back online service.
From E-How.com Excerpt on Polyester vs. Polyurethane.
Polyester Polyurethane (What we use.)
• Polyester polyurethane is considered to provide optimal protection over polyurethane, because… it is highly stain-resistant, abrasion-resistant, and chemical-resistant. Best results are achieved when applied by professional spray equipment. Polyester develops 95% of its full properties in 24 hours.
Common applications for Polyester polyurethane coatings are used when optimal protection is required for industrial applications, airplanes, boats, floors, and porcelain tub & tile refinishing.
What Does This Mean For You?… IMHO TubPotion System – Process – Coatings Are The Optimal Choice For Your Bathtub Refinishing Project, Bar None.
- TubPotion # 7 & 9 Anti-Slip Solutions easy to clean, provides a safe and secure feeling without sharp grit.
- TubPotion # 8 Silane Adhesion Promoter, literally superglue for coatings.
- TubPotion # 11 Polyester Bonding Primer The Third level Of Adhesion.
- TubPotion # 12 Polyester Polyurethane Hybrid Protective Top Coat. For The Look & Feel Of Porcelain.
Unlike other Tampa Florida Bathtub & Ceramic Tile Refinishing Contractors ours does not use any sharp grit and is included at no extra charge. TubPotion coatings lay down like glass so I believe in providing a safe product and environment to our inner circle clients.
Plus the A.D.A. (Americans with Disabilities Act) mandates since 1990 that all bathtubs have this feature. You should consider having us install safety grab bars as well?
Some folks don’t get it? By asking us NOT to add this valuable service, they seem to think it will make the tub hard to clean. Which is not the case at all. I have it in my own tub and wouldn’t consider not using it.
Gives you the high performance of silicone caulk. Acrylic latex caulk shrinks as it dry’s and can crack as well yellow over time.
There are many considerations you need to be aware of when getting your Tampa Fl. tub and tile refinished and we highly recommend a FREE in-home estimate. Where we can go over in detail the many options available to you.
- Grouting

What other TTampa Florida Bathtub & Ceramic Tile Refinishing Contractor “DARES” to provide this level of performance and service?
Training: Hi I’m Paul Burns, as an ASE (Automotive Society of Excellence) Certified Refinisher from my car painting days, starting in 1983, I understand the importance of providing proper chemical handling, surface preparation and coating chemistry.
I pass this on to my refinishing team. I have yet to hire another refinisher from any other company that didn’t require complete re-training.
Pricing: So if you’ve wondered why you see such wide pricing in Tampa Florida Refinishing contractors, some as low as $299 now you know why… Cheap pricing = poor customer service, cheap materials, shortcuts on preparation, poorly applied coatings, UN-trained refinishers, and worthless guarantees, where they will blame you when the job fails.
