How do I change the color of a bathroom tub? Is it possible?

We have two regular tubs that we'd like to bust out and replace with claw foot tubs eventually, but in the meantime, one is olive green, and one is dark brown. I'd love to paint them or change their appearance somehow.

There are companies that specialized in refinishing bathroom tubs, sinks and tile surrounds (from '50s pink to a nice white, etc)... there are paints that can be used to do it yourself.... but... having someone else do it may give you better results.... it is usually lots cheaper than replacing it all.

There is a special epoxy paint for this sold at Home Depot, Lowes and on Amazon. It is really stinky and I recommend wearing a respirator when doing it. I have done this and results were awesome if I do say so myself!
