The Process

When you let Tub Doctor, Inc. reglaze your bathtub you know you are getting nothing but the best.
We take no shortcuts and do the job right, getting it all done in one day with no mess and no hassles.

• We strip out the old caulk from around the tub and unscrew the overflow plate (when possible).
• We set up our powerful negative ventilation system and chemically clean the tub and lightly sand it.
• We remove the drain cover and clean and sand the area.
• We acid-etch the tub removing the old finish leaving it dull and ready to prime. This step is key!
• We repair most chips 100% free using a special patching compound.
• We sand and blend the patched areas and sterilize the entire tub.
• We painstakingly mask off the entire room, including the floor.
• We set up our hot turbine air compressor and remote air supply.
• We mix our 3-part chemical primer, including a powerful bonding agent designed to bond to ceramic.
• We spray 2-3 coats of primer and allow it to dry.
• We tac-cloth and smooth the tub.
• We mix our 2-part top coat consisting of a catalyst and resin, let it induct and prepare to spray the top coat.
• We spray the tub, giving you a total of 6+ coats and leaving you with amazing like new results.
• We clean up and remove the masking and pack up our equipment.
• We caulk the tub and put back any hardware that was removed.

DONE!
The end result is a highly-chemical resistant surface with an amazing 98% gloss factor. The final product is difficult to distinguish from a new tub and is ready to use the next day.
