Refinishing, reglazing, resurfacing
What is the difference between “bathtub refinishing” and “bathtub reglazing” or resurfacing”?
To be fair, most people (especially those with allot of expendable income) have never heard of any of these terms! Plain and simple, they all mean practically the same thing: The art, and science of refurbishing a wear torn, dingy, outdated color, dented, or even cracked, bathtub, shower, sink, vanity top or kitchen counter top to bring it back to looking like new and extending its life to at least another 5-10 years, depending on the severity of the damage and the quality of the products used to complete the transformation. One thing is for sure, refinishing, reglazing, or resurfacing are ALL completed in less than half the time of replacing, AND for less than half the cost!
1) Refinishing: Refers to the entire process of cleaning, prepping, patching, and applying the final topcoat of professional grade product to bring the bathtub, shower or countertop to look, feel and perform like it is new again!
2) Reglazing: Refers to the last and final step of the bathtub, shower or countertop restoration process: The Professional coating. This coating can be applied by brush and roller, poured, or sprayed with a professional spray gun, usually a HVLP gun (High Volume Low Pressure) typically used to Professionally paint cars, boats and aircraft.
3) Resurfacing: Refers to the actual repairs done to an old beat-up bathtub, shower or countertop before the final coating is applied. So, you can see how closely related these three terms are, and all are commonly used in describing the art and science of Bathtub, Shower, Vanity and Countertop repair and “Face-lift”!
