Liquid acrylic has been used for tub renovations for years and has already become a leader in this industry. Both professionals and consumers recommend this material, as it has proven itself to be economical, effective, and safe. Acrylic is environmentally friendly, which is confirmed by international certification. Using products after reglazing is completely safe for health.
Bathtub refinishing is suitable for working with different surfaces. It is used for repairing cast iron and steel enameled tubs.
The material is perfect for covering surfaces of any configuration, with intricate relief details that are difficult to repair by other methods.
This is possible due to the special, finely-tuned consistency of the liquid acrylic, its optimal viscosity, and ability to spread over the treated surface.
The working properties of liquid acrylic allow for a smooth and even surface that looks as good as new products.
A unique feature of this method is that airbrush or rollers are not used, which could create unnecessary texture or leave lint, as happens when spray painting bathtubs.
Dense and elastic, liquid acrylic covers any color changes of enamel, creating a surface of uniform white color.

Advantages of Ceramic Bathtub Reglazing with ArmoGlaze

The aesthetics of a bathtub restored with acrylic freshens up the bathroom interior, making it more contemporary. This effect and appearance of the product remain unchanged during usage and withstand repeated daily use.
Liquid acrylic (ArmoGlaze) creates a durable coating on the tub surface that does not crack due to temperature changes or accidental impacts. Thanks to good adhesion, the material does not peel off, and its high strength prevents it from chipping.
Unlike spray, which quickly loses its appearance, an acrylic surface maintains its shine, uniformity, smoothness, and whiteness thanks to the absence of micropores. This property allows the material to repel contaminants and the finest impurities found in tap water. With proper care, a restored ceramic bathtub will look new and glossy for 10-15 years.
Technicians from the New York Tubs company recommend the service of ceramic bathtub reglazing with ArmoGlaze as the fastest refinishing method. For this method, the product does not need to be disassembled, which prevents damage to floor and wall coverings and also saves a lot of time.
An experienced technician familiar with the pour-on application technique can renew the surface in no more than 2-3 hours. The drying time for liquid acrylic also favorably distinguishes it from other painting materials. On average, this period is 24 hours, after which the tub can be used.
