Hi,

We are doing a bit of remodeling in our main bathroom. We have recently installed the Amstrong Laminate Ceiling panels and they look beautiful.... until your gaze falls down onto the shower/tub. I'm sure this all-in-one unit is at least 30 years old, but it is a nice style that we'd like to keep. Is there a way to refinish it? I don't know what type of fiberglass it is, but I know it's fiberglass! I just found this website:
http://www.superjetco.com/mainframe.html
Does anyone have experience with them or their products?

Any advice is appreciated!

Thanks,
Judy

I'm not familiar with the product, but for $35 what do you have to lose? Good idea to read through the entire procedure on the website to make sure you are up to the job. If you do try it, post back on how it did.

this is just me,..... but i like dealing with someone local, that i could call ,to help solve a problem that may occur, i didn't have time to check these dudes out on the bbb. but maybe you should.
re-doing tubs is a fine art, and cannot be left to the quick and easy types. with the new stuff that you guys have put into this space/project it would seem to me that you wouldn't compromise on quality. just my thoughts.
