Bathroom Tub and Tile Refinishing

[Robert Marek]

Hello - All of our bathrooms need some attention.  Most are 1950's style pink, blue and yellow tile, which i think is awesome.  However, we have a few tubs that need to be either refinished or replaced.  They appear to be structurally fine, so I am hoping that we can get away with refinishing.

When I was real estate shopping last year I saw many of these bathrooms and the agents always said oh this bathroom can just be refinished by just "spraying" them white.  I made a mental note of that but didn't think further about it.  I did see some pictures and the bathrooms look just like mine, but all white and brand new looking.  

Does anyone have any experience with this?  Is there some technique to spray a bathroom to give it a new look and feel, and is it durable?

Would like to know about any experience with this and or suggestions.  I have a tub right now that needs help, its pretty big and I would prefer not to replace it.  We want it done right away.  

Thank you,

Robert
