It's now 2020, did your shower paint stick and continue to look nice and glossy or did it peel? Really liked this video a lot.

Hey guys I have to tell you that I just did this with my tub/shower combo at home. I watched this video twice and made sure to read all the directions a couple of times. Prepping the surface is absolutely necessary--do not skimp! We even originally paid a guy to come and resurface our tub only to not allow him to proceed when we discovered he had only one container of a back of the shelf product and not really any prep work planned. So....I say this to say this product is absolutely amazing! We had a blue 1990's shower/tub combo that was all seamless and included a covered ceiling and front trim as well. It took 3 boxes to complete the job that's how much surface area there was. I sanded, I cleaned, I scraped and then repeated this process until I was absolutely sure I had a nicely prepped surface. It looks amazing and it dried like a dream! It is not coming off! Also our shower was fiberglass and had a diamond pattern on the back wall--so took some extra time to work around that. A couple of things I would add to this amazing video: 1. have extra rollers on hand--like 3 per kit. The epoxy eats away the foam super quick and you need to change it before it falls apart and leaves foam bits in your wet paint (yes, I know from experience). 2. Get the better respirator like she had...you need it. 3. Set everything up and within reach so you can work quickly without having to leave to grab things you might need. 4. Watch for runs/drips. In a couple of places I got the paint too thick and I caught a couple of drips but more ended up happening later. It's not a super big deal....but it bugs me and wish I would have noticed them. Set a fan up to blow on the wet paint afterwards--this might help it to dry a little quicker and keep it from happening. Their customer service department is amazing and thorough. I hope this helps someone else!!! I'm super happy. It is cheaper to order from them directly verses Amazon. And I had all of the included items already so I got the standard kits instead of the premium kits. So pleased! (March 28th 2019).

I desperately need to do my fiberglass shower wall over (painted over the wear n tear with white paint and still looks horrible!) Question, I have roller paint brushes that are the fluffy yellow kind (not sponge) and its the wide head instead of the mini kit size roller brush, is that okay to use or get some sponge rollers due to it may leave ripples?

Natalie not if you use the non slip additive to the paint. certain kits come with it and some don't but you can add some to your cart. i needed 1 for the small shower stall, 2 for a tub shower combo.

This video was meant to cross my viewing.. for many years I’ve wanted to change the color of walls and tub surround which was installed by Empire in 06… they didn’t have a clue as to what the materials are for walls and tub! I’ve watched many videos to see what looked like mine and there you were!! you were so convincing that thanks to you I ordered my 2 kits.. arrived in 3 days and I let it sit for two weeks just nervous of this big project.. we’ll after climbing a ladder to scrub the walls and then paint - I must admit I had a few mishaps well almost disasters but recovered.. paint on floor from the small pan included and my tiny brush was crumbling during process!!! Had to speed roll! So far GREAT results it’s beautiful!!! Thanks so much for sharing for us diys!! And I didn’t forget the etching powder step! Folks if you attempt this project - have a reg size roller and a nice size paint tray!! It’s needed!! Best video on you tube!!! Love my results!!!

Great job! Yes, I agree that applying that with a paper towel is not a good idea, unless the epoxy requires lint and dust. There are lint free "paper towels" in big box or auto stores for engine work . I'm surprised they didn't advise final wipe down with a tac cloth.

The results have been great though. It still looks new (when clean) and there are no chips or anything. I would definitely recommend this product, just make sure you put a solid effort into prep, because it's very important.
