We have a cast iron bath at present, has anyone had one re-enamelled? Someone told me that it wasn't a wise move, it isn't as good as the original finish. We have someone locally who does it for a living but I would appreciate an unbiased view before enbarking on such a project.

The original method used on cast iron baths is 'vitreous enamel'- this can still be done but is quite pricey. There are various other methods of resurfacing a bath from a 'one-coat system' which takes about an hour to a two week process. You get what you pay for. But dont smash it up!!

I am thinking of getting the Tubby kit but would like some idea of how long it takes a DIY novice to do the whole bath.

We have a bath that was re enamelled and is chipping. Any ideas as to whether it is best to have it redone or stripped and polished as one person has suggested

Hi SarahDid you ever dig out the details for the tubby enamelling kit? I would be really grateful if you let me have them if you did. [Log in to view email] Also, how long did it take and can you do it with the bath in situe? My bath is a mess and we are about to try and sell the house. Big thanks in advance, Natalie
