I knew there was a reason I was glad Home Depot came to town.

One year ago we purchased all the supplies that we would need to do a
complete bathroom remodel - paint for cabinets and walls, tub & surround
painting kit (Epoxy), Hardibacker board, tile, mortar, grout, and all
the
tools necessary (paint equipment and tiling gear). We've been putzing
with
this off and on at our liesure ever since. The tub turned out great
(ps -
it is extremely important to follow ALL of the preparation instructions
on
this), replace the sink with a white one (everything was yellow before),

I have been considering painting our yellow tub too but all the one I have
seen are not smooth. Do you have any pics?


Again, it's all in the application and preparation. How smoothe it comes
out depends on how you apply it. Use the very best applicators you can
find. It's Epoxy. I used a roller, which does not leave the smoothest
finish. I brushed the last coat (3 total) and it came out much better, but
since I'd rolled the first two coats, not perfect. I did that because it
was a one piece tub and surround. Use a very high grade brush and it'll
come out smoothe.
