REVITALIZING THE ENDURING BEAUTY OF CAST IRON BATHTUBS
Cast iron bathtubs represent the pinnacle of bathtub design, blending exceptional durability with timeless elegance. Crafted through the time-honored technique of pouring molten iron into precise molds, these tubs are renowned for their robustness and substantial feel. The distinguishing feature of cast iron bathtubs is their thick porcelain enamel coating, which offers a depth and quality of finish superior to less expensive alternatives.
However, even these paragons of bathtub construction can fall prey to the occasional scratch or chip, detracting from their otherwise flawless appearance. Addressing these blemishes requires a repair solution that respects the quality of the original manufacture. Multi-Tech Products (MTP) rises to this challenge with the Quick Glaze System, complemented by our specially formulated Poly-Filler. This combination is adept at restoring the porcelain surface to its original splendor.
Given the standard color schemes typically associated with cast iron tubs, matching the repair area to the existing color is a straightforward process with the help of MTP’s extensive Product Color section. Ensuring the longevity and invisibility of these repairs, however, hinges on the proper preparation of the cast iron surface. MTP recommends the application of Etching Cream and Quickprep Primer before the Poly-Filler and Quick Glaze System are applied. This preparatory step is crucial for achieving optimal adhesion, guaranteeing that the repairs not only blend seamlessly with the original enamel but also stand the test of time, preserving the inherent beauty and value of your cast iron bathtub.
