Polyurethane Acrylic as a Bathtub Refinishing Kit

The polymer base of liquid acrylic has a viscous, thick consistency, which at the same time is quite docile, pliable, and self-leveling. These characteristics make it possible to create a durable coating with a perfect appearance with this material.

The hardener and the white polymer base are mixed right before the start of the coating when the bathtub surface is already completely prepared. The composition cannot be prepared in advance, since its pot life is limited.

Therefore, the work of applying composition must be completed in 60-120 minutes. For this reason, it is best to trust the restoration of bathtubs to an experienced craftsman who will be able to cover the tub at this time.

Preparing material for the work is an important stage at which no mistakes can be made. It is necessary to mix the hardener into the polymer base thoroughly and for a certain period.

Do not shake to avoid the formation of air bubbles, and mix the material well by lifting it from the bottom of the container. A poorly mixed hardener is a verdict on the future coating. It will be of poor quality, short-lived, and covered with yellow spots.

Liquid Bathtub (Completed Work)

The technique of working with liquid acrylic differs from other materials and is developed taking into account its characteristics. To make the new surface smooth and even, the finished composition is poured onto the surface of the tub from a small convenient container. In this case, a brush or roller is not only unnecessary but also bad, because the pile will get stuck in the thick material, leaving debris and bald spots.

Without additional tools and with the correct technique, the liquid acrylic spreads over the surface, creating a perfectly even coating. The material imitates all the curves and relief of the product, so it is very convenient to use it on hydromassage bathtubs, as well as non-standard products.

What Are the Advantages?

Liquid acrylic was created in the Republic of Slovenia from raw materials produced by European companies. All products are subject to strict quality controls. The environmental friendliness and safety of polyurethane acrylic are confirmed by certificates and the results of many studies.

The smell of the material is barely noticeable, not sharp, and not pungent. This is a great advantage both for the craftsman, who does not endanger himself during work and for the tenants of the apartment, who will not experience discomfort after the repair.

Today, the production of liquid acrylic is developing, and the product lines are being replenished with new products. Modern types of material dry faster for example in 24 hours, which significantly saves time. There are formulations enriched with silver ions for those who value hygiene and safety.

Some manufacturers have added color pastes to the list of their products, with which the renovation of the bathtub turns into a creative process giving a pleasing result with aesthetics and creativity.

Liquid Bathtub In Process

Polyurethane acrylic gives the bathtub additional strength not only due to its dense layer that is about 1/5 inches thick but also due to the peculiarities of its texture. The elasticity and impact resistance of the material prevents cracking, chips, and peeling. After using pour-on application method, the surface of the bath can serve up to 12-15 years retaining all its properties and characteristics.

This material is suitable for the restoration of significantly worn surfaces. Old enameled cast iron tubs, bathtubs after dismantling the acrylic insert, products with deep damage can all be restored with this tub repair kit and bring back its hygienic cleanliness and whiteness.

Hygiene is another important acrylic characteristic that makes it ideal for use in the bathroom. The smooth, non-porous surface prevents the growth of microorganisms, dirt deposits, and rust. Acrylic cannot be affected by mold spores, so it is recommended to use it to create a self-leveling corner to protect the bathroom from excess moisture and fungus.
