MAGICTub and Tile Refinishing Kit - Spray on Aerosol - Refinish Sinks Tile Porcelain Acrylic Fiberglass and Ceramic Surfaces, Bright White, 12 Ounce (Pack of 2)

I'm renovating my son's bathroom that has the old, pink, trim tiles and tub. I've never painted tile before so I taped everything off and had the idea to use Kilz primer on part of the trim tiles first to see if that would help with covering the medium pink color. It did, but it's totally not necessary to use primer first. I used just this spray on the wall tiles part of the bathroom to see which way is better and it's much better by itself and this product comes out smoother and shinier without using a primer first. It's not a thick spray, normal spray paint consistency, so it leaked a tiny bit under the tape along the grout line, but was really easy to clean up my lines with some careful sanding after it dried. Comes right off with sand paper, but not my nails when I scratched it so see how it holds up. The smell is a beast so figure out how to ventilate the area and wear a painter's mask if it bothers you too much. I just took lots of breaks, kept the bathroom vent fan running, and had a standing fan blowing in the room to keep the air moving. It took two coats to cover the pink completely and looks perfect. I'll add pics of before and after when I finish the bathroom completely.

The only thing I didn't like about this was the smell. Good product but don't know the longevity of it, which is why I'm glad there are 2 cans. It was only needed on the bottom of the tub where the surface rust was starting to show. After I applied this, I put down a large vinyl self-stick non-slip mat to insure extended success.

Horrible product! Used on my camper tub, toilet, and sink which has turned yellow over the years. The smell was very strong! Even with a respirator and both bathroom vents and all windows open, I had to keep running out to catch my breath. Bought 3 kits and 2 of the 6 cans were defective and splattered when sprayed. It sprayed on splotchy even after 3 full coats with holding can at 10-12 in from surface. Did not spray upside down well like advertised. And dried with a matte finish..no shine whatsoever making it look very cheap would chip off when running nail lightly to test for durability. I normally am not picky and could look past these things however to the touch the surface was very rough and knew I could never enjoy taking a shower in this awful space. Bought a paint on tub refinishing paint and am already very pleased with it after 2 coats!

I just moved into an apartment a month ago with VERY questionable maintenance staff. I wish I'd known that prior to the move, but of course they won't tell you they half-ss everything.Two weeks after I moved in the VERY poorly done tub re-coat they had done started to peel up in sheets. 2 foot long chunks were coming off in my hand, and I was leaving the shower with paint chips stuck to my body. Management's solution was "Don't worry about it, we redo it after every tennant. But I guess if it bothers you we can have someone spray on another coat."Aaaaand there we have it. They didn't prep, probably didn't even clean, just "sprayed on another coat".Obviously I would get the same results if they did it, so I bought this kit to give a try myself. Because it's a rental and because I don't plan to stay here long (for obvious reasons), I didn't want to spend much. I wasn't looking for perfect results, just something that looks acceptable and doesn't peel.I'm moderately handy with small household repairs and projects. I'm very far from a pro, but I can do basic things well, I usually know the proper tools and methods to use and I get good results. Not always perfect, but looking good and working right. I can't build or remodel, but I can fix things well enough. Just to give some background on the "type" of person giving this review - not a pro, but not a total novice.I was impressed by the directions and think a total novice COULD use this kit, though. It very clearly tells you what you need, what things are necessary and which are optional, and gives easy to follow step by step instructions.The process could be done by anyone with basic use of their hands and minimal strength and the ability to bend and squat. The prep is time consuming but not physically difficult. You basically remove any peeling coating, clean, sand, clean with TSP, wipe, spray.FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY. Use TSP cleaner. Your "regular" household cleaner IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH. If you prep properly, you'll get good results that last.You NEED good ventilation and at very least an N95 mask. The fumes are strong during application but quickly dissipate to just the smell of fresh paint as the product dries. Cover ANYTHING you don't want mist on. That's really my only complaint with this product, is there is a lot of mist/overspray.The 2 cans in the kit covered a VERY crappy looking tub well. If you want to do a surround as well you'll probably need another kit.I can't comment on durability - I won't be in this apartment long enough to tell how it lasts. But I'm happy with how it turned out. I've included pictures of the extent of the peeling I was dealing with, and the finished tub.If I wanted to do it absolutely perfectly, and not at all see where the old paint was, I'd have wet sanded the whole darn thing and started from zero. It is not my property, I shouldn't have had to do this anyway, "good enough" is good enough. I'm very happy with the results. The coating covered well and you have to REALLY look to see where the old, peeled paint was. If you took the time to remove all old coating, you'd get excellent results.This was a good, easy fix for someone else's problem. Just remember to DO THE PREP and you'll be fine.

This stuff works great! Redid my bath tub and it looks perfect! It's been a couple months and is holding uo well. Please use a mask or very good ventilation.
