DWIL Tub Paint, Tub and Tile Refinishing Kit with Tools, Tub Refinishing Kit Sink Paint Water Based &Low Odor, Easy to Use Bathtub Paint for Bathroom Kitchen, Semi-Gloss Dark Grey, 25-30sq.ft

I had been putting up with the hideous “greige” tiles, sink, and fiberglass shower enclosure ever since we bought our house. After loads of research, I decided to try DWIL tub and tile paint. I don’t have a fan in my bathroom, and everything I read about all the alternatives out there (including the one that gets the most hype: rustolem’s tub refinishing paint) were epoxy based, and you had to have major respirator masks to use safely. When I found DWIL, I thought it might be too good to be true, so I decided to try it on the sink first and see how it went, and then decide if I’d do the tile, the floor, and the shower enclosure.Well, not only did it work, but it was almost easy. I mean, sure, I had to take time to tape everything off, and clean things well, but … that stuff is amazing. It took more coats than I expected to not see a little of the greige showing through, but the paint dried so quickly, I was able to go over areas with show-through within an hour of doing a coat. And if I dribbled paint on the floor (which I did a couple times), a wet rag would bring that up easily if it was still wet, or it would scrape off with a scrape razor. No problem.)The sink came out so well, I did the walls and floor and the shower enclosure. My entire bathroom looks completely different. I wound up redoing the ancient 80s wall tiles in the other full and half bath in the house.The shower enclosure took a lot longer, and a lot more coats were needed (I think I did 5), but again, it’s fast applying and drying, so it wasn’t that bad.I recommend buying better rollers - the ones that come in the kit aren’t great, but the paint brush that comes with it is fine. The hardening liquid that comes in the kit isn’t in a great container; I immediately transferred it to a small glass jar and would put the paint into a plastic paint jug so I could do smaller sections instead of prepping the whole can at once. (It’s possible to use the paint you’ve pre-prepped hours after without it hardening: just cover it tightly - the paint brush and roller too - with plastic wrap.)After the DWIL had fully cured, I painted the shower and sink with two coats of polycrylic to give it a bit more shine, but it’s not necessary. The walls and floor didn’t get the polycrylic addition, and they look fabulous too.We’re not planning to sell our house any time soon, but I know the investment of time and energy I made in refreshing our bathrooms with the help of DWIL paint will pay off big-time. They look modern and clean, instead of dull, old, and greige. A (relatively) easy and definitely affordable DIY project that anyone can do.

Super great and easy to use. Smell is not very strong and dries quick in between coats.

Took my 1950’s green tub to this in 4 coats! I have enough left over for touch up tomorrow. Everything you need comes with this kit and it couldn’t be easier! Follow the instructions and trust the process and you will have success. Can’t wait to see how long it lasts but I am surprisingly amazed with this product!

We had 1960s blue and cream tiles in our main bathroom. We were DIYing our bathroom so we had a tight budget. Replacing the walls with new drywall was a messy, time consuming task we wanted to avoid, so it was worth trying to paint the tiles since they were in good shape. It took 3 coats but it looks great! I bought grout pen for it too but I don’t recommend it! My only concern was that the roller given with the kit should have rounded edges so it doesn’t leave lines when applying. The product is thinner than my usual latex paint so it had to be applied slower than usual to avoid splatter. Overall I am pleased with the results.

I put four coats over old tiles and it looks really good and really cleaned up the area. I also used it on old cupboards and it is far superior to any paint.
