How to Refinish an Antique Tub | This Old House
/ thisoldhouse
Would’ve been nice to see the finished product
😂 he's like "yeah, you can help later....with the lifting..."
I said the same thing. Lol
Best show ever.
I'm never in my life going to refinish an antique tub, but these videos are so awesome that you can't just not watch it!
Richard was so happy when he finally had a chance to help out. U can tell the other guy is a straight up introvert.
@@Kevin-mp5of that guy genuinely felt the way that he did weather it was scripted or not. I c ppl like this all the time in the trades who r socially awkward and he fits the description of one.
This Old Psychologist. 🦞🦞🦞
Love those antique tubs. Great restoration and video, gents!🇺🇸💯👊👍👍
I have to laugh when Rich lifts up the air mask to see better! The guy really needs better ventilation to shoot epoxy paint.
For real. I’m a professional and I do this for a living. This was a horrible example of how to execute this project. No jokes, brain cells were lost this day. And that over spray sticks to EVERYTHING.
When things were at their very worst:
2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid - repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
The first sign - the Earth will spin faster.
The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin.
Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
Beaware - Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
After WW3 - rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist - the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
- will seem to rise from the dead
- will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.
- banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist
- Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance.
- „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“

Great restoration and great job👍 100%
I am addicted to watching!!!
Great job 👍
I had one in an apartment and every tenant hated getting in and out and cleaning all around it. It took 3 shower curtains and a ceiling mounted shower curtain rod to contain the water from the shower. I eventually gave it away and it was in perfect condition and over 90yrs old, Huge decorative claw feet and still no one wanted to pay even 10 bucks for it. That thing worked and sucked, all at the same time.
Sad I would've paid for it :/
I love watching someone good at what they do. Excellent work sir!
@@Kevin-mp5of , regardless of how you feel towards this particular mans work, what does your response have to do with what I said originally? I know nothing about sending a small probe to Mars and I would love watching someone working on all aspects of that. So again what does how easy something is have to do with enjoying someone performing said task?
@@Kevin-mp5of , I follow what you’re saying now. This is after all the show this old house. I still enjoy watching someone good at what they do and no this is probably not any more difficult than me refinishing my fiberglass shower. Lol.
@@brianglade848 , I am not understanding you sir, please clarify?
@@Kevin-mp5of Ah, got it. Thanks.
"Maybe Later" occurs at 2:33
We refinished ours the exact same way.
Awesome job.
wow, shooter mcgavin is reglazing tubs now.
2:34 well that guy was right. now richard got to help.
Rich: What you like me to do?
Tub Doctor: Have a seat in my waiting room.
Weeeeeee!!!!!!
Would have liked to see the final product......
Awesome plumber
How do I prep the outside / old paint- rust if I don't have a sandblaster? My inside is ok-
Maybe later! xD
Nice
Is there anyone in Pittsburgh PA that does this?
How’d you fix the porcelain cracks around the drain?
How does an epoxy/urethane coating like this compare to the original porcelain enamel for durability?
How much does it cost to reglaze a tub? We have one, but it is to the floor and no feet.
I don't know anything more revealing about our degraded consumer expectations then standing in a modern tub.
Did you see that result shot?
Seems like a great idea taking those masks off while it's foggy with toxic fumes lmao
Maybe later LOL
I want to know: having a g/f that dyes her hair, will that stain the new finish? And do they do mobile (my tub ain't coming out of that 50's bath)?
Yes and yes. But if you wash the dye off right away no problem. If you dont you will have to wet sand it off.
that is sweet i love it
ممتاز.. قناه روعه ✔
Hey
They all say it will last about 10 years, but what do you think guys?
Is it maybe more realistic to expect it to last only a few years actually?
Depends... How destructive are your kids/dogs?
I didn’t even know this could happen
@@brianglade848 I didn’t know it was possible to restore old tubs
@@Kevin-mp5of ... yeah, but it's 20 - 30 years worth of epoxy lipstick, easily.
I'm thinking $$$ CASH FOR SCRAP$$$ and a new Kohler Tub or a Colt Seavers tub available at Tractor Supply.
If you close your eyes, you’ll think the tub’s being refinished by Cliff Claven.
Respirators during the spraying but i guess Richie's lungs are safe from all the v.o.c.'s as soon as the application is done, the clouds of overspray are harmless don't ya know. Maybe he's got stories of an uncle from the 20's who applied the original porcelain on tubs with a cigarette in his lips.
Too bad we couldnt see it up close with lights
Miss Molly says it can be refinished to look like new so Steve Lav can give his girlfriend a bath later !
How do people become this creepy?
@@Kevin-mp5of creepy little infants, huh? 🤔
Running a Titan Maxim 2?
You guys should be wearing full face masks. Once that epoxy is atomized, it can get in your tear ducts.
Did he say hydrochloric or hydrofluoric? I am sure it’s not Hydrofluoric acid!
Did he say hydrofluoric acid? Yikes! Don't try this at home, that stuff can kill you.
He sure as heck did. Yikes is right!
He has to be mistaken. HF Acid is highly dangerous if it comes in contact with the skin. It can be deadly if contact is made and not treated immediately. We would wear full chem suits, fresh air when working in HF acid units.
@@therustyblades1212 That's what I was thinking. But I don't think they misspoke. I expect that is the sort of acid you'd need to use for this type of process. I just expect he's being incredibly unsafe about it.
3rd
Jack Mahoffer?
I could see saving one that was 7ft but the small ones are garbage
Not positive it was safe to lift your mask just yet there Richard.
Those tubes suck. Impossible to clean under.
@@augustreil
It's the same epoxy used on fancy garage floors.
@@augustreil
The coating is solid. Just like you'd expect factory paints cars, jet plane paint, ship and ocean liners or concrete swilling pools. Economical way to freshen it up. The surface can be recoated with hand sanding. I dont think this old bathtub (house) would post the video if it wasn't legit.
@@Kevin-mp5of
WHY?
