Painted porcelain bathtub

Peace Painting Co., Inc. on Feb 22, 2012The most aggressive strippers will remove epoxy. It would be a very toxic and messy process, but it is an option. You would need to be suited up and wearing a professional respirator, and have a good back. It would take multiple steps/coats. Best, CharlesHelpful Reply

SawHorse Design Build on Feb 22, 2012It sounds like you like in-town based on the age of the house. I would get a professional coating company to apply a new epoxy finish to the tub. They can even strip off the existing finish for you. The other option if to replace the tub which could involve tile repair as well. E-mail me if you would like the contact information for tub repairs. info@sawhorse.netHelpful Reply
