Is Tub Reglazing Safe?

Posted on: August 2, 2024 by theadmin

One of the questions that is asked the most about bathtub reglazing services is whether the reglazing chemicals are harmful to health. As a property owner, you want to make sure that you do not put your guests in harm’s way and that the chemicals used in the reglazing process will not make them sick. 

Each reglazing company uses different types of products, which may or may not contain chemicals that are considered harmful to health. It is important to speak with the company to find out more about their product. 

The fumes created by the tub reglazing process are dangerous when they are directly breathed in. Anyone who is going to be directly around the fumes will need to wear protective gear to protect them. 

At Shiny Surface Restoration, we believe that the health and safety of our customers and our customers’ guests are paramount. We use products that are not considered to be harmful to health and we take all precautions needed to ensure a positive experience. Our team will ventilate all areas where the products are used as well. 

Below, we will discuss more about the products we use and how you can be sure that they will not harm you or your guests. 

Our Tub Reglazing Products Are Superior 

The bathtub reglazing products that we use have been formulated over many years to ensure that they are not only durable but that they yield the best possible results as well. 

The product itself delivers a beautiful finish that stands out and provides supreme adhesion so that your tubs will last for many years. 

  • 100% Isocyanate Free: Isocyanates are a type of chemical that is often found in reglazing products. This chemical is harmful to your health and can quickly cause gastrointestinal, eye, and respiratory irritation.

At Shiny Surface Restoration, our products are 100% Isocyanate free. We truly care about the health of our refinishers and the health of you and your guests.

  • Low VOCs: VOCs, or volatile organic compounds, exist in products and are emitted into the air as a gas when the product or process that uses the product takes place. VOCs can be quite harmful, especially when breathed in. There are some that are known to cause cancer. VOCs can mix with other gases in the air and cause a reaction resulting in pollution.

At Shiny Surface Restoration, we use products that contain low VOCs. There are no products that are completely free from VOCs, but we have chosen a product that produces as minimal fumes as possible. Our products are environmentally friendly.

  • Low Odor: Odors are a concern when it comes to using strong products such as refinishing agents. Strong odors can be repulsive and may lead to upset with your guests. Sometimes, strong odors can cause coughing.

At Shiny Surface Restoration, the product that we use does not contain any strong odors. Our paint smells much less than that of other similar products used. The odors that are produced by our products will quickly dissipate once the job is done within a couple of hours. Our technicians will ventilate all areas where work is being performed as well.

  • Eco-Friendly: The products used at Shiny Surface Restoration are completely eco-friendly and sustainable. The products have low VOCs and are free from other harmful chemicals.
