Bathtub enamel without removing the old one
To apply enamel to the bathtub without removing the old one, it is important to follow some steps. First of all, make sure the surface is clean and dry. Apply a specific enamel for bathtubs directly onto the existing layer, being careful to spread the product evenly. Allow it to dry completely following the manufacturer's instructions. This method can be useful to revive the surface, but it may not guarantee optimal durability over time. For better and longer-lasting results, consider eventually removing the old enamel before applying the new one.
