Reglazed Bathtub and Tile Maintenance Guid
DO:
1. Clean the tub regularly using mild soap and warm water.
2. Avoid all abrasive cleaners or scrubbing tools.
3. Dry the tub thoroughly after each use to prevent moisture buildup.
4. Keep the surface away from harsh or corrosive chemicals.
5. Inform tenants that the tub has been reglazed so they follow the proper care instructions.
6. Use cleaning products specifically formulated for reglazed tubs, tiles, and sinks.
7. Repair any leaking faucets immediately to prevent water from penetrating and damaging the coating.
DON’T:
1. Do not use bleach, acidic cleaners, or any highly corrosive agents.
2. Do not scrub the surface with abrasive materials such as steel wool or rough pads.
3. Do not pour boiling water directly into the tub, as sudden temperature changes may cause cracks.
4. Avoid dropping heavy objects into the tub, which can chip or compromise the coating.
5. Do not use suction-cup bath mats on a permanent basis, as they trap moisture and can cause peeling.
6. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh scrubbers of any kind.
7. Do not apply adhesive stickers or decals to the surface.
8. Do not use the tub until the reglaze has fully cured.
9. Do not store shampoos, soaps, or other products on the tub surface during the first few months.
10. Always test new cleaning products on a small, inconspicuous area before full use.
Additional Tips:
1. Avoid bath mats with suction cups, as they may damage the reglazed surface.
2. Do not allow water to sit or pool in the tub for long periods.
3. Inspect the tub or sink faucet regularly; if you notice any dripping, consult a plumber promptly.
4. Keep the tub’s drainage system clean and free of buildup to ensure proper water flow.
5. Please don’t keep shampoo, soap, or any gel products on the edge of the bathtub. They can damage the finish if left there too long.
Note: Please allow the surface to cure for 24 to 48 hours before using the shower. This ensures the coating fully hardens and the tub is completely ready for regular use.
