DIRECTIONS
STEP 1 - PREPARING THE FIXTURE (Bathtubs, sinks, tile, fiberglass
showers, countertops, cultured marble)
A. Use products at room temperatures above 60 degrees only. The preparation
of the fixture is the most important step in the refinishing process. Follow
directions completely.
B. Surface must be clean, dry and free from rust. Remove caulking
with a razor blade or putty knife. Remove soap scum, grease,
wax, etc by wiping the fixture with Acetone purchased from your local
hardware store. All fixtures, tile, and especially
fiberglass fixtures must be sanded with 80 grit sandpaper to remove paint
droppings, excess caulking or other material that is on the surface prior to
continuing. Fiberglass fixtures must be thoroughly sanded to roughen the
surface prior to applying the primer. (Exceptions are formica countertops, cultured marble and
plastics. These surfaces require a light sanding with 320 grit sandpaper)
C. Remove any rust with a wire brush.
D. Chip or Crack Repairs In Sinks,
Bathtubs, Tile, Cultured Marble and Fiberglass. If chips, cracks or dings are present. These must be
repaired prior to refinishing. Repair kits, with easy to follow directions
are available from our Super Store. After repairs are made, remove any left over debris and wipe
the repaired area lightly with a small amount of Acetone on a paper towel.
* REMOVE ANY SILICONE OR OTHER TYPES OF
CAULKING FROM THE FIXTURE COMPLETELY
STEP 2 – Applying Masking Tape and
Primer
Make sure fixture is dry and free of debris.
Mask plumbing fixtures and surrounding areas with masking tape and paper if
needed. Be sure to
mask the drain areas of bathtubs and sinks. Cut excess tape from drains using a razor knife.
Wipe the entire fixture with Acetone prior to applying the primer.
Allow Acetone to evaporate completely. Primer - Apply the primer
using a brush or roller. Use light coat only, allowing the primer to dry to the
touch before applying the next coat. One light coat of primer is all that is required.
On Sinks, start at the drain, and work your way out of the sink to the
edges. For bathtubs, start at drain area, then cover the bottom of the
bathtub, next the sides of the tub, and finally the top lip and the front of
the bathtub last. Allow primer to dry for 24 hours.
STEP 3 – Applying The Brush-On Color Coating
A. Mask off plumbing fixtures, walls, or any other surfaces not being
refinished.
B. Mix paint thoroughly. . Do not try to apply coating all at once. Apply
one light
coat and finish with a good, wet, shiny coat waiting for the coating to dry
to the touch prior to applying each coat..
C. Avoid runs, If you do get any runs, wipe the paint off with a paper towel
lightly saturated with acetone.
D. When finished, remove masking tape and paper. Do not allow fixture
to dry with masking tape or paper left on it. Be careful not to get debris
on wet coating. Allow to Dry 24-48 hours depending on temperature and
humidity – DO NOT USE THE FIXTURE OR ALLOW THE PAINTED AREA TO GET WET FOR
24-48 HOURS. DO NOT APPLY FANS OR HEAT TO TRY AND SPEED UP DRYING TIME THIS
ACTUALLY DELAYS DRYING TIMES.
Clean Up with paint
thinner or dispose of brushes, rollers and other materials properly. Do not
allow children in the work area.
