transgreasertransgreaser: First, make sure you wear a respirator. I got the Elipse 1/2 mask for toxic fumes and it worked great. It’s on Amazon.

I did two coats of primer and four coats of Topside, with 24 hrs between coats. I purchased the wrong primer from Amazon because they paired it with the paint. Needed primer for metal, not fiberglass. So make sure you check which you get the right one for your tub! I had to go to Lowe’s for the correct RUSTOLEUM primer.

Also, I wish I’d known about Flood for getting a smoother finish before I started. Thanks to @seejanedrill I now do and will never make that mistake again. The finish isn’t perfect but it’s so much better. Just caulked it and will take my first shower tomorrow. 🤞I will follow up if there is a problem. Otherwise I highly recommend. It took forever because we’ve had a lot of humidity. I started the project three weeks ago and am just winding up. Whew!

Hardest part was not dripping sweat on the tub while working. 😂 Honestly, was very annoying. I couldn’t wear enough bandanas to soak it up as I worked.

Be patient with the work and yourself and have a lot of ventilation because it’s intense. Thanks to...

IndygusIndygus: Goes on smoothly with a small roller and dries quickly. I used 6 coats on an outdoor globe along with 3 coats of fiberglass primer. High gloss finish and very red.

Beth: the product works great! we painted our RV Shower, and it looks fantastic! I would highly recommend the product... the concern I had was that I ordered 2 cans, and only needed 1. From the description, we thought one can would be cutting it close. I tried to return the product, and was being told the product is considered hazardous, and can not be returned. I reached out to Amazon customer service, and they are refunding me my money, but I may have just gotten lucky. So make sure you need that extra can before you order!

Kindle Customer patxKindle Customer patx: Painted TWO "concrete-overlay" metal planters that were looking spotty - these are on a sidewalk 300 yards from salt water and salt air in Texas - durability is in question, will update this in 6 months, for now this paint is the absolute BOMB - did not need the gloss, but these planters look beautiful for now !!!

Mtl PQ: Used it in battleship gray to paint a patio table that has seen better days. Looks new now! Very happy with the finish. Put 2 coats on (sanding lightly in between coats). It took much longer to dry than the can said. Stayed sticky for a week maybe, for the first coat? Less for the second coat. Not sure if it’s because of the humidity. Impressed with this product and would definitely consider using it for other outdoor applications and trying other colours.

Dawn R: I have used Rustoleum "tub and Tile" MANY times on 3 different shower/tub enclosures to DIY and fix them up. It is a very messy thin and toxic smelling product. This is NOT any of those things. It is "thicker" so it covers better. It flows together better and DOES NOT RUN! Please take my advice and try this you will not be disappointed. I wish it was available in Canada but it is not, we are fortunate Amazon carries it for us. I am always wondering why we have such terrible products we must use in Canada as the good stuff is not made available to us. This is much easier to use as well, a beginner can easily refinish their tub/shower with one can, and giving it 2 coats as it goes very far. I see many people speak about the smell, well it smells much less then the Tub and tile product. That product smells very toxic this does not. The smell it does have disapates with in 1 hour. Good luck with your project and try this "Top side" out it will make you proud!
