After a 24-hour period, you will want to re-caulk the perimeter of the tub. Our technicians do not return to do this, so if you cannot do it yourself, try to plan this ahead of time. We recommend G.E. Rubberized Silicone.
Do not use your bathtub for 48 hours. You want to give the materials time to cure, using the tub before curing is done will compromise the glaze as well as the caulking.
Check your plumbing! If you properly prepared, this should only be maintenance going forward. Dripping faucets and showerheads aren’t just a noisy nuisance, especially if you have hardwater coming from them. Constant or standing water can create staining, or progress to rust damage. This also stands true for leaving common bathing items (i.e., soaps, shampoo/bodywash bottles, etc) on the sides of your tub. Water often gets trapped under these items, leaving behind bacteria, hardwater and rust stains.
We do not recommend using bathmats with suction cups. Not only do they allow a lot of standing water that can over time damage your finish, but they can be unsanitary as well. We do offer slip resistant bottoms upon request, but if you’re looking for something less permanent, Amazon has a great selection of non-slip silicone mats that don’t have suction cups, and some are even machine washable!
Do not use abrasive or high-chemical cleaners. Common household cleaners such as Comet, Ajax, ammonia, bleach, etc. can be tempting to use to get a “thorough, deep clean”; however, these items will wear the finish off of your tub, having the opposite desired effect.
Dyes, drain opening solutions, or other chemicals should never be left on bathtub surface. It would be impractical to say not to use them at all, but if used, ensure they are thoroughly rinsed and wiped afterwards to keep the integrity of your finish intact.
Shower door and other permanent fixture installations/removal may void any reglazing guarantee that you have.
