Rust-Oleum Tub & Tile Coastal Fog Spray Paint | Bathroom Surface Refresh, Ceramic Porcelain Fiberglass, Durable Moisture Resistant Finish, 12 Oz

We had a brown stain on our tub which was very visible. It looked like a brown rectangular patch that had been done by the previous owner. It was very visible to anyone who used the tub or shower and it was in our guest room. My wife kept complaining about the look of it. I bought this product and read the instructions. The instructions are printed in " micro font" on can itself. I had to get a flashlight and reading glasses to see it. Basically shake the can well, ventilate the room, try not to breathe the fumes and spray from a distance of 12 inches. I applied multiple coats and used an old wash cloth to smooth the edges after spraying. I opened all the doors and left it for a week to cure. It looks very good now and the brown stain and patch is barely visible. I would say it worked great. It dries very hard and blended very well. I bought the white color for a standard ceramic tub. When my wife saw it a week later she loved it. I would definitely recommend this product.

Excellent product to paint your tub or accessories in your bathroom, take some distance to spray and cover all areas that you don’t want to paint. Odor is some kind of strong… I will buy more…

BACKGROUND and KIT: I moved into a 1960s apartment with a cast iron sink from around the same time. It was incredibly chipped and stained, and I tried all different cleaning products to no avail. Finally, I gave up and bought the Rust-Oleum Tub & Tile kit and some Sheffield porcelain filler. The kit involves brushing on the epoxy and that turned out nicely. However, since it is brushed on, you can see the lines up close. The brushing also loses its shine very quickly. SPRAYING: A few months ago, the spray appeared on Amazon and I raced to buy it. The spray gives a much more even and natural coat, even over the brushed coat, which I did not have to remove or sand. The final result looks pretty amazing (see image). A lot of the bad reviews for the spray are from people who did not properly prep their sink or tub. If you have rust, staining, or chipping, you have to clean and fix them before spraying or the defects will seep through the paint. Common sense! MORE TIPS: Please remember to wear a mask and cover surrounding areas before spraying, especially for large areas like tubs. Otherwise, you'll end up with brain damage, writing silly reviews about how the spray residue got all over the place. That usually happens when you spray too close to the surface, which tends to result in residue flying everywhere and a thick goopy layer. Don't forget to allow the spray to cure for at least 24 hours. I'd recommend 48 hours to be safe. RESULT AND CLEANUP: Overall, the spray did a really nice job and was enough to cover a kitchen sink, but this solution is certainly temporary. After nearly a year with the kit, I had to use this spray as a touch-up. It has been 4 months since the spraying and I can see that the sink will need another layer soon. The paint loses its shine and chips easily. To clean up and remove "mistakes", spray the area with Goo Gone or a citrus cleaner. Let it soften and spray a little more. Use a putty knife to scrape the paint off.

We originally painted our shower tiles with the paint can version of this product. We got this to touch up areas. It is so much better than the canned version because you can use this spray paint on multiple days. There isn't a time limit due to mixing. The odor is very strong. It is a must to open windows and keep the room ventilated. I would even suggest wearing a mask! This product covered the tiles perfectly! We let it sit for a week before using the shower. To allow the resin to cure. We did the scratch test on the tiles. It was well covered and didn't scratch off. It will take a few coats for this to really cover well, but it adheres so well to the tile. It is a bright white that really gives the bathroom such a bright and clean feel. Easy to use as well.

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!

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 product did exactly what I needed it to do which was cover a small area I needed to repair after doing a compete bath tub refinish. There was an area about 12" x 12" where the refinishing product didn't adhere because I didn't prepare it properly, so the finish bubbled after a couple of months. I removed the finish that didn't adhere with a razor blade scraper, cleaned it well with acetone and applied the Rust-Oleum product in about 6 coats until the area was covered. I did this right before leaving on a week long vacation so it had plenty of time to cure. It looks great and matches the tub refinish color pretty well. It does had a strong lingering smell, so open windows and close the door. I definitely wouldn't use this product to do a compete tub refinish. You need to buy the roll on, two-part tub refinishing product and use this for small jobs and repairs. Just my opinion based my experience.

It works very well

It works like magic.
