How to Fix Peeling Tub Finish | Sink / Toilet / Cracked Porcelain Repair
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 мар 2024
- In this video, I fix the chipped paint on my refinished tub. Three years after I had my cast iron tub refinished, the paint has started to flake off. Before I re-siliconed the tile tub surround, I used some Super Glue Porcelain Chip Fix and it worked great! I wouldn't use it on something that is gouged but it would work best on chipped, scratched, or cracked surfaces. If you have ever used this or something like it, let me know in the comments how it worked!

@@TheFixerHomeRepair If you need to film more videos, you can redo my parent's kitchen cabinets and countertops in South Florida. I'll even help out haha.
I've been watching the numbers!!!! Maybe by the time the next video is up...🎉 🎉
I commend you for all the maintenance repairs and remodeling- rebuilding improvements to your home. I’m sure your wife appreciates your handyman skills. You’re a good guy and I bet you’re a good Dad too. Keep up the good work and please keep making videos. ❤
This is a much better idea than me trying to completely annihilate my bathroom using a sledgehammer lol
The choice is yours. 🤷🏻♂️😂
Look, the tub rubbed me the wrong way for the last time.
@@chrisw443 hey I get that 🤣
I had an old tub I think was cast iron that I wanted to replace. I had seen videos showing what I thought was the same type of tub being broken up with a sledge hammer. So I asked my son-in-law to do it for me. An hour later he had only managed to break off chips of the porcelain. I told him to stop because it obviously wasn’t working. It eventually was removed but in one piece and it took two men. About 7-9 years later my son-in-law still gives me a hard time about it if I ask him to help me with anything. 😏
Congrats on 500K! Love your videos. I am in the process of remodeling my kitchen after watching your kitchen video a few months ago. Bathroom will be next. I sat an watched all 6 hours of that video at once.
Nice job. I would recommend using a high quality smaller artist brush for better control and ease of application.
Great video. Could have used this awhile back, but now I know!! Congratulations on 500k!!🎉
Great content as always. So close to 500K!! So exciting!
Nice job. Thanks for posting
Looks fantastic & if I hadn't watched this, I would never have known this was repaired.
Excellent - I appreciate a "real" honest review of a product. Looks like it works pretty darn well. One to keep on the list. TY
That must be the drawback to refinishing the tub, a good solution.
This would make me want to replace the tub vs refinishing it to be honest
The Fixer 👍
I've used epoxy paint in the past. It lasts a good little while. The super glue may be better. I've never tried it. I have a kitchen sink downstairs with a chip. I'll get me some and try it.
Nice work.
Nicely done its good to know. I also installed my own tile work and grouted between the tiles and the tub and then had the tub refinished. So far the refinish has not come off like yours here maybe the guy sanded the tub better along the edge but I have no idea I did not want to bother him so I did not watch over his shoulder while he was working and it's a bit tight in the bathroom. I guess I will see in years to come but it's good to know how to repair in case it happens.
I’ve improved my odds for success by shortening the bristles for more control.
Came out awesome 👍
Looks great!
Glad you stuck with fixing houses and not becoming a dentist 😂
Awesome job.
My ears got destroyed at the end. 😢 LOL
Me too. Actually my ears were destroyed around the 2 minutes mark. I was glad he acknowledged it at the end because I thought it was just me. 😂
Nice one, Matt. 👍🤩
Awesome job. Thanks for the how-to!
Great job!…you’re the best!…
Great video! I had no idea how to fix this. Thank you.
Thanks, just what i need.
I swear you do everything that I need to do in my house. lol My tub looks exactly like that and ours was resurfaced too. It doesn't last all that long.
Awesome job Matt. Did you glue extra chips to the bill of your hat?
I have used this with mixed results. The coats are very thin. That's great for fixing a hairline crack. But anything thicker and you need multiple coats. The stuff dries 'soft' so if you try to repair a chip in a cup you need a lot of coats and then the repair is 'spongy' (I know he said don't do that.)
Great video! You always have the Best content.
Thanks so much!
that's a neat tool you're using to remove the caulking...where did you find it?
**Tip** to stop from drying up..
When closing products such as "Porcelain Repair Super Glue" & other glues with screw tops (even if they have a push pin)...
Put some Saran Wrap or a piece of a plastic bag stretched over the opening, THEN screw on the top; or push the PIN in...
I got SO sick of buying multiple glues @ $5 using them 1x, trying to use them again & they were either glued shut, dried out and/or both.. ALL the big names!
Since I've been doing this trick I've had the same glue over 2 years! Without the top on! Using a small piece of Saran cling wrap.
Do you know of anything that would work on an acrylic tub for the same type of thing?
I remove the caulking with the curved pick you were using. I push behind seal from top & drag then repeat under. Or use a sharp new razor. With both you can feel the thin tips against wall/grout & have more control.. goes much quicker also.
I have a very old porcelain coated metal tub (I guess) my old roommate used (and destroyed) the bathroom.
I'm about to rip up floors & walls. I noticed a chip on the floor of the tub. Would this product be your suggestion or have you used anything else for my type of tub. It's never been resurfaced.

4:17 Should have masked off the area with tape and plastic, to avoid accidents.
A dentist said he could fix my teeth for $14,000. Can you do better than that with that stuff?
