Many parents find bath times a struggle. There are many bath tubs on the market today for kids ages six months to five years, are usually inflatable and slip-proof and even sport a nice headrest.

Have fun with the paint. Colors is not yet bright. Using the bathroom paved with red tiles and sharp only distracts. Important to a child in the bathroom felt comfortable, but also focused on activities performed. Select color clear, universal, then the easiest way to adjust the color additives.

A Brief Refinishing Bath Tub Guide


Executive summary about bath tubs by Pieter West

You even have the option of choosing a liner that can be glued over the surface of your tub. The following will provide you with a brief step by step refinishing bathtub guide to help you get started.

The first thing you need to do when refinishing bathtub fixtures is to assemble the tools that you will need, many of which can be found in a bathtubs refinishing kit. Now in order to get the best results you should clean the entire surface of your tub. Once you have refinished you should rinse it off thoroughly and then give it plenty of time to dry.

The next step in the process is to sand down the surface of your tub in order to rough it up a bit and make the surface even. This will make it easier for the paint to cling to the surface. At this point you should also cover up any surfaces that you do not wish to paint with masking tape.

Finally you are able to put on your first coat of paint. It is recommended that you use an EP acrylic which produces a finish that is highly durable and resistant. Another great thing about this type of paint is that it is available in a wide range colors so it will be easy to find one that matches the exact color of your bathtub. The kit that you purchase should contain some instructions on how to mix your primer so make sure that you follow them closely. When applying the first coat, use your spray gun to achieve an even layer by using a constant back and forth motion. It is a good idea to test this out first on cardboard.

When you are finished applying the desired number of coats give it about 48 hours to dry before using the tub again. Hopefully you have found this refinishing bathtub guide to be of help for this project.

Baby Bathtub Guide
Here are a few bath-time tips. For starters, don't worry about giving your baby an official bath right away. Except for sponge baths, bathing shouldn't start until the stump of your baby's umbilical cord falls off. After that, you can give your baby a bath every day if you find it necessary, although two to three times a week is better because daily bathing can dry out a baby's tender skin. In addition to the tub, you'll need a soft towel, a baby washcloth, and an unscented, hypoallergenic baby body wash that doubles as shampoo.

There is a variety of baby bathtubs on the market. Expect your baby to protest the first couple of times. For a baby 6 months, buy a bathtub that has a contoured design. Don't buy an inflatable bathtub, even if your pediatrician recommends it.
