Bathtub, Tile, Vanity Refinishing Dallas

Bathtub, Tile and Vanity refinishing has broken into two categories. On one side we have bathtub, tile and vanity painting which would really be the Apartment grade work and has not changed much since the 1990's. It is painting the surface with epoxy paint, I have outlined the cons of doing this in the pages and blogs attached to this site. Below I have attached a short (less then 2 min.) video explanation of the difference in the two categories.

I would like to also touch on a topic that sometimes goes overlooked. Why the equipment used for bathtub refinishing is so important. Professionals will use an H.V.L.P. applicator, which stands for high volume low pressure. This system is NOT a gun hooked up to an air compressor (even tho that too is a type of h.v.l.p. such as automotive painting. This system is designed for very fine finish detail work. The gun alone is over $300 and like most things you get what you pay for. The gun has an air diffuse knob, a volume control knob and pattern control knob.  The compressor itself only produces a maximum of 7 pounds of air. That is way too much for our industry but the compressor is also used by the truck bed liner industry such as the rinoliner or tuff liner products. This heavier rubbery material will take more 'push' to get the product to lay right. We are able to adjust the air pressure down to about 2 pounds. This will gently lay the coating down and the heated air from the compressor pulls all the moisture out of the air supplying the spray gun.
