Product is great comes in a small tin completed whole bath with over half tin left I stripped the bath down had bad lime scale on the base rubbed down till smooth preparation is vital The paint is very thin so beware of runs I painted with a brush as other reviews mentioned air bubbles with a roller. The only thing is you will get brush marks and as new baths are sprayed you will never have that 100% smooth look. But with new bath fittings it looks Brilliant!!

If you want something that easy to use, don't buy this. I'm sure that in the right hands a very good result is possible but this product can be a nightmare! I have a lot of experience in painting stuff of all kinds and in my view, this stuff needs to be used with a paint conditioner of some kind as it does not flow out to give a nice finish. If you usre a brush it leaves brush marks and if you use a roller it leaves bobbles. If you put on more than the lightest coat it sags and runs. If you are at all perfectionist leave it alone because it will keep you awake at night.

First time I have done anything like this. Much more straightforward than I'd hoped. It takes longer to prepare the bath than actually paint it. Don't use a roller as this leaves too many air bubbles and leaves a rough surface just use a brush it gives a smoother finish. Do use a mask as the fumes are spectacular and only paint small areas at a time as it gets tacky very quickly but end result on my daughter's discolourrd old bath is great. Only done a couple of days ago so don't know how it will last yet.

I have bought this product 3 times. 1st time was great, but it has to be used same day as it dries out and becomes hard in the tin making it impossible to use. I bought 2 more tins in January thinking if I needed to touch anything up again I would have it there. Also one for my daughter. ( Nearly £50 wasted). I opened the tins to use, but the hardener to mix in the paint had turned to jelly. A waste of money. I wouldn't recommend

Firstly, no issues with the retailer - A1. The product is OK, but you HAVE to apply it properly ! - You'll need at least 4 mini-foam rollers (4 inches long) to do 2 bath coats, as the solvent makes the rollers expand and they fall off their tubes... Get a pack from a poundshop. - Sand and degrease the bath thoroughly, otherwise the coating doesn't stick - Mask off the edge with 2" masking tape - you won't get a decent edge with a roller, you'll also need 2 small paint brushes. Plus the paint sticks to everything. - DON'T pour ALL of the hardener into ALL of the paint - pour out some unmixed paint into a separate container beforehand, and don't use all the hardener to start off with - then you'll have some spare to go over any bubbles that you miss and have to sand down afterwards (see below). - The biggest issue is bubbling. The paint creates loads of tiny bubbles when you apply it (solvent evaporating ?) - you MUST keep rolling over the paint as it dries, continually flattening bubbles as they appear. This means you'll go through extra rollers as the solvent makes them go soft and fall off. You'll need a pack of 4-6 in total for 2 bath coats. Eventually as the paint hardens, the bubbles stop forming and you can stop rolling. - Remove any masking tape after the 1st coat, before the paint fully dries, or you'll have to scrape it off. Put some tape more on if you need to, before doing the 2nd coat. - If you end up with rough, dry bubbles, you can sand them down with 150 fine grit wet sandpaper OK, then re-paint with the unused paint you decanted off at the start. You can't use the original mixed paint as it'll have set solid after a couple of hours. - The final finish is OK - the better the prep is and the more bubbles you flatten, the better. A paint brush may be useful also to deal with bubbles - you'll probably need one for cutting in the edges anyway.Read full review
