Tub transformation

Patches of turquoise were underneath the white coating that was chipping off the tub in the master bathroom. Not many business are listed under "tub refinishing" in Statesboro but I managed to find David Ranew, owner of Tile-n-Shine, who spent more than four hours on the transformation.

First he scrapped off the chipping white paint and then applied a JASCO remover that had to sit for a while. Next he cleaned off the remover and then lightly sanded away the last of the white stuff. Success! He said it was the first time in 20 years of work that he stripped a tub without reglazing it.

Here's the tub on October 2, the week before we moved in, and here it is today:
