Maintenance Care and Warranty Guidelines

Proper Sealing After Refinishing: Ensure the longevity of your refinished surfaces by sealing fixtures such as drains, faucets, knobs, and spouts with caulking. Neglecting to seal these fixtures after the 48-hour cure period can lead to finish lifting over time due to moisture exposure around the edges.

Post-Refinishing Care Instructions:

  • Avoiding Surface Wetness:

  • Refrain from getting the surface wet for a minimum of 48 hours after completing the refinishing work. This period is crucial for the curing process.

  • Cleaning and Maintenance Recommendations:

    • To preserve the beauty and attractiveness of your newly refinished bathtub and tiles, follow these maintenance guidelines:

      • Avoid abrasive cleaners, corrosive chemicals, and products with strong acids.

      • Regularly clean with warm water and liquid detergents or recommended bathroom cleaners.

      • Refrain from using suction cup bathmats on the finish.

      • Promptly repair leaky faucets to prevent premature wear and rust around the drain.

      • Avoid using acids or liquid clog removers on the finish.

  • Additional Recommendations:

    • Refrain from using the reglazed surface for specific days or hours as indicated by the refinisher.

    • Do not lay objects on the finish, and consider purchasing a shower rack instead.

  • Exercise caution with nail polish remover, as it can cause damage to the finish.

  • Apply liquid car wax every three months to protect the finish and facilitate easier cleaning.

  • For extended durability, refrain from storing soap, shampoo, or bath oil on the corner ledge to prevent water accumulation underneath.

Caulking Recommendations:

  • Before First Use:

  • It is recommended that customers apply silicone caulking if needed to the bathtub before its first use.

Warranty Policy:

  • Scope of Warranty:

    • Our warranty covers peeling and blistering throughout the entire reglazed surfaces caused by defects in product or workmanship.

  • Notification and Inspection:

    • Any minor peeling and/or blistering must be notified immediately (no later than a week) to maintain warranty. Inspection will be conducted to determine if damage falls under warranty coverage.

  • Exclusions from Warranty:

    • Exclusions include chipping, scratches, rust, and man-made damages. Damage resulting from improper cleaning, excessive use, leaky plumbing, or neglect is expressly excluded.

Additional Notes:

  • Transferability of Warranty:

    • Warranty is transferable only when the original Owner/Buyer writes to transfer it to the new owner.

  • Worker Caution:

    • Workers should remove shoes when standing in a reglazed tub to avoid potential damage.
