A tired, stained bathtub can age an entire bathroom. But before you consider costly replacements, think about refinishing it. At J&D Sprayers & Makeovers, we offer bath painting solutions that rejuvenate surfaces quickly, affordably, and with long-lasting results.

Why Choose Professional Bath Refinishing?

Painting a bath restores its appearance without the hassle, cost, and mess of replacement. A properly refinished bathtub looks crisp and new—and can extend its lifespan significantly at a fraction of the cost.

Our Proven Process

1. Preparation Is Key

We begin by thoroughly cleaning the bathtub. Any old caulk, soap scum, or debris is removed, ensuring a clean base. Then, we sand the surface with coarse and fine grit paper to promote better paint adhesion

2. Protection & Masking

Next, we carefully mask off taps, drains, and surrounding areas to prevent overspray. Floors and walls around the tub are also protected—ensuring a tidy, hassle-free job .

3. Priming the Surface

For acrylic or ceramic tubs, we apply a specialist primer. For cast iron or enameled baths, we use suitable metal primers. These layers ensure optimal paint adhesion and durability 

4. Applying the Top Coat

Using either spray, roller, or brush—depending on your bath’s material and shape—we apply multiple thin coats of high-quality epoxy or acrylic bath paint. This creates a smooth, even surface and avoids thick patches or drips 

5. Curing & Finishing Touches

Once coated, the tub needs at least 48 hours to fully cure. After drying, any masked areas are unmarked, and caulk is replaced to seal edges professionally 

Expert Tips & Warnings

• Prioritise drying time: Rushing the process can lead to poor adhesion or early chipping.

• Ventilation is essential: We always ensure workspaces are well-ventilated and our team uses appropriate safety gear.

• Non-slip consideration: We choose products that maintain a non-slip surface once cured—crucial for everyday safety

• Metal baths need special care: If rust is present, we treat it thoroughly or switch to rust-inhibitive primer and enamel

In the Words of Professionals (From Reddit)

“Proper surface preparation is an important part … scuffing the existing paint provides a better bond. All loose paint should be scraped away. Rusty cast iron ought to be primed for better corrosion protection.” reddit.com

“Save your time & $ on doing it yourself & pay a professional. At least u will have a warranty … My parents had old bath tub they paid a professional to refinish still looks great 20 yrs later!”
