Is it OK to use on recoated/painted bathtubs?

I have found that it starts to come off of my laminate flooring stairway when mopped or scrubbed. I think it would do the same on a bath but even worse. I suggest first opaque bath mats, nonslip(throw them in the wash but NOT the dryer) or secondly soft, noslip adhesive strips(inexpensive but start peeling off with time). Whatever u choose read directions carefully for surface prepping to maximize adhesion.

I don't know if this product would work as you intend. We only used them in the bathtub.

YES!.. Make sure you properly prepare the surface prior to application. Cast iron and steel tubs typically are baked enamel surfaces that are very glossy. The gloss will need to be "etched" or dulled. Also, you will no longer be able to use regular cleanser as before. Since this is an epoxy based product, you will need to use a fiberglass tub/shower cleaner, or a non-abrasive cleaner rated for these types of surfaces.

I have only used it on rust deposits on the surface of our fiberglass bathtub & kitchen sink. I would give it a try in a very small area to see how it worked. That way you can use a touch up paint to cover the area.

I have not however I must advise that it will likely stain your caulk and washcloth. It's REALLY hard to get out even though it says "washable". You have to rinse in hot (still stained), do a heavy duty hot cycle, soak in bleach or oxyclean for an hour, then wash in heavy cycle hot again for at least 12 minutes, etc. They do have bathtub paints you can buy, I'd do that first.

Yes, it's safe to use them in a Jacuzzi tub. If you use salts every time you use the tub you should run a tub of plain water and run the jets for a few minutes to wash out any salt residue. If you're talkong about a Jacuzzi Hot Tub/Spa, you need to talk to the dealer or manufacturer for their specific instructions.

yes they stained my bathtub.. but i think it depends of the what your is your tub made out of.. I have a fiberglass tub in my children's bathtub and it did stain the bathtub, but technically not permanently, but lots of elbow grease to get it out.

Sorry, we have only used it in fiberglass tubs. If it stains slightly I use clorox cleaner on it.

I followed the instructions from a DIY web site, I only sanded the tub one time with 220 and a second time with 400. Then I cleaned the tub with Lime away using a scrubbing pad. This gave me a good surface to work with. Don't know about the design my tub is plain.

Hmmm. No man. maybe ok for bathtubs and sinks but no other use Inside the house. Y ou better dont try in the house. At all.

I would not. This has a rare kind of acid in it. It is designed for fiberglass tubs/showers. As mentioned by others, it does have a very strong fume to it. But it is the only thing I've found that works great on my fiberglass tub to remove the mineral stains from my water. I would not use it on a painted surface.

I use warm soapy water. I've read not to use windex so I would stay away from cleaners like that.

If you have quite a bit of water in the tub I think it's okay. Rinse out the tub right away. This is such a great product!!! A little bit of caution is called for but, all in all, it's fairly safe:)

No, disinfects the water, not material items. I have run a mix of a little bleach and soap through our bath tub that has jets...run for several minutes, will make lots of bubbles...then rinse out with water only a few times seems to clean it out pretty good.

Adam, I have not tried paint removal on porcelain tub or sinks. I looked at the back of the bottle and it did not say anything about not using on porcelain. You may want to contact Soy-Gel to see what they suggest.

I honestly don't know. But I would try it. Spray it on & leave for an hour or so. It definitely won't hurt the tub. Pouring hydrogen peroxide on the stain seems to be the preferred choice on the internet.

Hello, I was checking to see what the ratio of polyester/polymide was for these cloths and saw your question. I am a 'green' housecleaner and use these to remove soap scum off of shower doors and tiles! The secret is to not make the microfiber cloth too damp. Just a light spray of vinegar and water and the soap scum will rub away beautifully. However, for your bathtub, the cloth would get too damp and not be effective. I use Bon Ami scrubbing powder and a sponge (scrubber side) for the bathtub and it works really well, as does baking soda in a pinch.
