Worked as advertised. November 15, 2009

I had an old mid-80s shower stall. I actually have the skills to replace the shower pan, but it was such a shame to replace it just because it was slightly discolored. I used this kit and applied two coats and it looked like new. It has been used daily for 5 months and still looks great. I even replaced the shower doors and it looked like a completely new renovation. My only negative comment would be that this mixes to the consistency of water. Maybe they do that so it can soak into any and every crack but in the case of my project I wish it had gone on a little thicker. Because it didn't go on thick, one coat was not enough and the old stains were still showing so I needed to apply a second coat. As for coverage, the shower pan was the size of a bath tub and even after two coats I still had 3/4 of the paint left. Unfortunately, I could not apply any more for the next 24 hours and since the 3/4 of can would harden before I could use it again, it had to go in the trash. In hindsight I should have mixed the product in a separate container. My guess that if you're doing a full bath tub you will easily have enough for two full coats or more. Also on any project if you want to do more than two coats, get two kits or do what I didn't and mix the product in a separate container because you cannot apply three coats before the mixed product hardens. As for applying the product I used a mini roller and it worked well.
This is an awesome product to renew old prefabricated fiberglass tub/shower pan November 2, 2009

This is an awesome product. I used it on two different applications to renew old fiberglass shower panel and an old white bathtub. They looked just like new after the application.
Just follow the instructions; sand it well and let it dry between coats. It was very straight forward. The only thing is make sure you wear a mask and the room is fairly well ventilated. This product does emit odor and it may make you sick if you aren't properly prepared.
We tried so many cleaning products but the stain/scum were so stubborn. Part of the fiberglass surface was actually wearing down and this product saves our life. Highly recommended.
Great cover-up for ugly fiberglass tub! July 10, 2009

We bought a used RV and the fiberglass tub was discolored an ugly yellow. I ordered this product in almond color, received it in a few days. I cleaned the tub quite well with a green scrubby and Simple Green, rinsed well, and the next day, applied this paint. You mix 2 parts together before applying with paint brush and/or roller. I used both ... disposable roller for larger areas and small disposable bristle brush for the corners. It applied easily and leveled quite well. One half the can covered the tub and surround with one coat. The label warns you to use good ventilation, and it would be wise to follow that advice. I wished I had used a mask, too. I had a headache and was dizzy when finished (about 3 hours).
We allowed about 2 weeks to dry before using the tub, and it has held up well through about 25 showers, with no chipping or peeling. I am VERY pleased with this product. It solved my problem well and inexpensively.

As long as you take your prep work seriously, which is not a lot but still somewhat time consuming, you will be pleased with the results. I had to cover an 85 year old tub and tiles that were painted with regular high gloss paint, what a PITA it was to clean off years on paint and decades of filth. I couldn't be happier with the results.
It has a texture to it that is somewhat slippery when wet, so be careful. Also the smell is strong, really strong. Wear a mask. One can was enough for the job, but I went away for a week and the can was dried solid. I ended up doing seven coats in 3 days to get everything the way I like it. One word of advice (beyond your following the manufacturing instructions) is cut in on the corners and around the drain, then use a wide roller to do all the big areas - just like painting any wall. Buy as many disposable brushes and rollers as you plan on coats, too. They can't be cleaned after use, I tried.

I actually used this product to make a faux stone finish on horrid dark green kitchen countertops - just sand lightly, wipe with vinegar and let dry. Then apply the tub & tile, I did 3 coats, with drying time in between. Then loaded a spray bottle with watered-down acrylic craft paint, and sprayed speckles (be sure to tarp the surrounding areas first!). Let dry between colors ( I used white, grey, black, brown and gold). Finally, seal with MinWax Polymer - 2 coats. With all the drying time you may not have your kitchen counter back for almost a week, but it sure looks great now!
