Has anyone ever tried painting a bath tub with car paint and clear? I assume there are some biological/environmental issues with this, so is there another option that or the same option that is environmentally safe?
it can be done .. but just go buy a new tub doc 😉
i used to buy houses/remodel and sell so i have done it quite a few times. never base/clear though. always used imron or another single stage urethane. scuff best you can, epoxy prime as a sealer to help bond to the porcelan if thats what it is and imron it.
OK, that sounds like a winner, single stage urethane on top of sealer, heck I paint cars I can do that. So, I have another question, what kind of Dupont paint would you suggest (will get the sealer that go with that paint)? The Colormaster store near me has Dupont paint as it’s choice paint.
dupont has imron of course and chroma one. dont know of others since its been years since i have used any dupont stuff. be sure you understand, you dont just want sealer, there are many different kinds, you want to put down a thin coat of epoxy primer. i dont know what dupont’s epoxy is but epoxies can usually be reduced down and be shot as a sealer. you just want that down there like a coating of spray glue for the ss to stick to. just helps it all bond to the porcelan which can be really tough to scuff up and get a tooth on.
any ol acrylic urethane will get the job done 😉
i say use non sanding epoxy and do a wet on wet job. and i wouldn’t use high dollar ss paint. go with the cheap stuff.

i know right. i have a 7yr, and new twins. one night we went to the corral, 7yr old got a free meal since she colored a pic. however they wouldn’t give me one. and mine was way prettier.
