The Drying Process: What to Expect After Bathtub Reglazing

Juan P

Professional bathtub reglazing involves a meticulous process that typically takes 4-5 hours to complete. Our technicians begin with thorough preparation, removing all caulking and cleaning the surface to ensure proper adhesion.


Refinishing a previously reglazed bathtub demands extra attention during preparation. The old coating must be completely removed through aggressive sanding to reach the original surface. This critical step prevents peeling and adhesion issues that commonly occur when new coatings are applied over old refinishing materials. Our technicians use specialized sanders and abrasives to methodically strip away all traces of previous refinishing products, ensuring a clean substrate for the new coating system.


After masking surrounding areas, we address any chips or cracks before applying an industrial-strength primer that bonds to the tub's surface.


The final stage involves applying multiple coats of specialized finish paint using professional spray equipment. Throughout the entire process, we maintain proper ventilation with industrial fans to manage fumes and optimize drying conditions. While the surface feels dry to touch within a few hours, we require a full 24-hour curing period before the tub can be exposed to water or cleaning products.


To ensure the longest-lasting results, we recommend waiting the full 24 hours before using your newly reglazed bathtub. This complete curing time allows the coating to achieve maximum hardness and durability, helping your refinished tub maintain its beautiful appearance for years to come.
