Refinishing - How It's Done

Step 1

This porcelain tub and tile may look hopeless, but it can be refinished to beautiful new look quickly and inexpensively.

Step 2

First, a technician prepares surfaces for reglazing by carefully cleaning, repairing, sanding, etching, and masking. This is the most imortant step. Proper preperation is the key to a quality job. Our technicians are trained to take their time and do it the right way...the CalBath way.

Step 3

Next, the technician primers the surfaces before application of topcoats. This is a self etching primer that bonds into the glazed ceramic or porcelain. This is yet another feature that adds to the beauty and durability of our product.

Step 4

With surface preparation completed, the technician now applies the topcoat layer by layer. This coating is allowed to cure for 24 hours before removal of masking. New bathtub fixtures add the finishing touch.

Step 5

The end product is a beautifully refinished, yet durable, shower stall. All this quality for approximately a third the cost of replacement.
