Rust-Oleum385291 Specialty Tub & Tile Spray Paint, 12 oz, Gloss Coastal Fog

Needed to redo our shower but wanted inexpensive now til can redo whole bathroom! This product is inexpensive and impressive. Did what I wanted. Looks professional

Works well, really stuck to shower pan. The odor does not last that long.

Works good, easy to apply, wish it was cheaper.

There are SEVERAL ISSUES to complain about this product! First... I would like to point out that I myself am quite experienced with finishing with all kinds of products, spending several years of my life in the profession of doing high-end finishing and refinishing of metal and wood surfaces. It does not surprise me to see other reviews raving about this product. These are clearly from people that I feel do not know much about what they are talking about.So... here are my notes>1) When (1) can cost close to $13, you would think that there would be enough paint available to adequately cover several square feet. This so called "epoxy" paint sprays out and covers in what I can best describe as ANEMIC. It will take several spray applications to simply build up the color to a point where it doesn't appear splotchy. You will need probably 6 or more cans to cover the surface of an entire tub. That in itself is bad... but that's just far starters.2) The absolute pure white color will not match any "normal" white color of a bathtub (bathtub white is almost always subdued or off-white). It's hard to believe anyone would not notice that!3) The "epoxy" paint lays on and dries without settling in like a normal spray paint such as lacquer or enamel, resulting in a very inconsistent and rough surface. One might suggest to simply spray more during each application to let it build up (filling in the porosity), but that does not work... and in the meantime you will have already used up one whole can for just a square foot! Ultimately, the surface needs to be wet-sanded appropriately to attain a smoother surface.4) Along with all the issues that I just described, this spray expels some of the most noxious fumes you will ever encounter! Be prepared, and be sure to fully protect yourself, along with a fan in the window to draw out ALL those horrible fumes!5) The preparation instructions (prior to actually applying this product) are long and detailed, describing the importance of cleaning and roughing up the surface for reliable adhesion. But, it's almost as if Rustoleum had never really worked with a bathtub ceramic surface to test their own product. When they describe sanding the original ceramic bathtub surface with regular sandpaper, this clearly shows they don't know what they are talking about. The ONLY material that will physically/mechanically etch a ceramic bathtub finish is real diamond abrasive. Fortunately, diamond cutting pads are readily available and affordable. I recommend starting with 100 grit to get all the high spots leveled out to the lows. At that point use 200, then 300, to get a fairly smooth 100% truly etched surface to spray on. That is the ONLY way to assure dependable adhesion (for any kind of paint). I will say one thing about this process... it's not easy... and will probably take a few days to complete just the preparation. But it's worth it.Final Note-I ended up just using this Tub& Tile paint (3 cans) as the undercoating/primer. After I wet sanded down all the roughness of the Tub&Tile paint, I actually used Rustoleum Professional Appliance White Enamel as a top coat, which yielded a much better finish overall. It's been 2 years since, and holding up and looking good. In my view, especially for the price, this should and could be a much better product!

Paint quality is good, strong smell , takes around 3 days to dry, but after is OK. Worth it to buy.

I have used the lg Rustoleum Tub & Tile kit and this spray botte version, and this review is based on the spray but in comparison to my experience with the large tub kits. I would rate the large tub kit only a 4 because it too has challenges. This spray version only gets a 3 becuase of the following reasons: it's very thin coating and you will need at least 4 bottles to cover a full tub, you don't get new shiny coat, and it is very thin and runny. On the plus side, the odor is not nearly as intoxicating as the large tubs and you get a bit more of a control with a spray rather than the large goopy tubs. The large tub version coats the tub with a beautiful glossy finish and it makes your tub/sink look brand new, but the spray leaves a very matte finish. I find that the spray version is also a bit easier to sand any runs from over spray or tiny bubles rather than the goopy tub version. The bubles are result of a combination of temperature (humidity) or overspray, and I've practiced enough with spray paint cans that I learned from my mistakes. To get the bubbles or over spray out you can just wait for it to dry and then sand it down and paint over it. My biggest problem is the waste because the large tub version is way too much product to cover a sink and I ended up throwing it away, but they also have small bottle versions, which are waaaaay too small and are only good for touch ups. They need to make a medium size version because if you are only going to cover a sink, you will have to throw out half of the product because the remainder has to be used within 4-6 hours or else it solidifies. For the most part, the spray covers fairly evenly and it's easy to use but not a permanent solution. At the very least, it covers some stains and imperfections you may have on your tub/sink and it will improve the look but it will not look brand new.

This is so awesome. I have paid $600.+ to have my tub look new. Not with these . It so easy to do.

Great coverage. Works.
