Default how best to remodel bathroom wall?

Out bathroom do have a window opens to the outside.
I have seen this tile coating commercial before. I thought it was just some
kind of spray painting to add a coat of something.
We are pretty sure want to remodel the bathroom, and take out the plastic
floor. The biggest problem seems to be selecting the right kind of wall. I
am thinking of large tiles. But wish to do something with the gap grout to
make cleaning easier.

We do not like cleaning bathroom tile wall. The grout gap between tiles

are
very difficult to clean. Can you recommend any better way for bathroom
walls?
I found replacing tile with marble is quite expensive.
Any idea? Thank you.


Another option is to have teh tile refinished. The refinishing also
makes a lovely coat over the old grout into a smoother easier to clean
surface. I had this process done, and have been very happy with the
results:

There are similar competing processes. Look for tub and tile
refinishers in your Yellow Pages.

This in concert with moisture elimination in your bathroom (do you
have a properly functioning vent that works well enough to keep your
mirror from steaming up? If not, that could be most of the problem).
Also consider wiping down the walls after a shower. All these will
help.
