Our professionally trained technicians take the time to properly prepare all surfaces using only the best materials. Here is a ten-step overview:

 
STEP 1 -Before

Cast-iron and steel tubs with porcelain surfaces can become thin and porous over time, absorbing soap, body oils and cleaners. This leads to pin holes, rust, chips and exposed metal areas. Fiberglass and Acrylic tubs are often cracked or fractured. Everyday wear and tear can chip and scratch any surface, including tubs, sinks, lavatories and cabinets. Ceramic tiles can become loose or cracked, and grout can mildew and breakdown over time.

STEP 2 - Trimming the Caulk

Existing caulking is removed. If the subsurface behind the wall is damp, we allow it to dry, ensuring a strong bond.

STEP 3 - Cleaning the surface

The entire surface to be resurfaced is cleaned. This thorough, professional cleaning is essential to bond the new surface to the old.

STEP 4 - Surface Prep

We use a cool, controlled surface prep rather than using a hot etching process which can permanently damage the surface. This creates a strong, mechanical bond between the surface and the coating. By combining both chemical and mechanical bonds, we create the strongest bond possible. After testing for the proper surface condition, the process is completed by chemical neutralization, removing the powder and rinsing. DreamMaker takes the utmost care to protect the surfaces not to be refinished.

STEP 5 - Chip Repair

Chips, cracks and dings are repaired with either a marine epoxy or polyester filler, whichever is more appropriate for the type of surface being repaired and the location of the damage. Many companies don't pay attention to this important detail.

STEP 6 - Masking

The entire area is prepared for treatment. Our masking technique ensures the coating is applied only to the proper surface and that no overspray damages any other surface. Masking helps create a more ideal spraying environment which produces the highest quality finish.

STEP 7 - Spraying Bonding Agent

A chemical bonding agent/primer, provides a bond between the surface and the coating. It is applied in one coat with high quality spray equipment. An evac unit is used to remove all fumes. Because our system combines both a mechanical and a chemical bond, it is far more durable than the single-bond techniques used by many other companies.


STEP 8 - Preparing to Spray

The new finish is mixed from three chemicals: a base, an activator and a reducer. The Classic Surface coating is activated and allowed to catalyze for at least 30 minutes prior to spraying. It is then reduced and is ready for spraying.

STEP 9 - Spraying the Coating

We then apply three coats of our Classic coating of approximately 3 mils each with the spray equipment. The precautions we take and the equipment that we use reduces the amount of overspray and ensures a uniform application.

STEP 10 - After

After drying, it's a whole new look for your bathroom. No more chips, scratches, or rust with brilliant, contemporary colors. A tough, shining surface that cleans easily and lasts is yours for a fraction of the cost of traditional remodeling services.
