Painted Bathtub

A white bathtub with a white tile wall and yellow and white striped shower curtain.

Give your bathroom an updated look on a budget by using bathtub paint on your old tub instead of replacing it. A Rust-Oleum Tub & Tile Refinishing Kit lets you give an old tub a new appearance.

This project requires prep work. This includes removing caulk, grime and mildew, and using sandpaper on the entire tub surface. The coating in the bathtub refinish kit is actually epoxy, which is more durable than traditional paint.

You’ll need to mix the solution as directed and ensure the room is well ventilated while you work. Be sure to follow the directions on the product label to ensure you properly prep and coat your bathtub and wait for the epoxy to cure before exposing it to water.
