Rust-Oleum 244166 Tub And Tile 2-Part Touch Up Paint, White

I ordered this to hide some cracking and peeling from a resurfaced tub and it was the perfect solution. The cracking was mostly over the grout lines and this filled those spaces perfectly. It was even great for small little dings and chips. I also used it on an area that was peeling on a tile and it filled in the space but you could see that it was a repaired - but only close up and not from a distance. This was a life saver from a a tub and tile surround resurfacing that didn't last as advertised (and of course the vendor went out of business). I didn't want to pay $3000 to have the tubs redone or replaced so this bought me years of additional service since the issues with the tub and tile were only cosmetic (ugly color) and not functional. My tubs were bright white and this was a perfect color match. I applied it like it was white out or nail polish. The smell is strong but just use a fan. I am extremely happy with this product!

it works, good value and shipped fast

I used this to repair two chips on a porcelain bathtub. Both were all the way through to the metal so there was rust that had to be cleaned off first. I used vinegar and salt to clean off as much of the rust as I could, then went over it with a little piece of 320 grit emery paper. Next I mixed the touch up kit and applied it with the supplied brush. The brush is small enough that you can precisely match the edges of the patch to the edges of the chip. However, it holds a surprising amount of the compound so (just like with paint) you have to be careful not to load up it up too much. The compound has approximately the same viscosity as correction fluid and I'm guessing would be difficult to use on anything other than a horizontal surface. Fortunately both of my chips were on the flat ledge surrounding the tub. After applying the compound I allowed three full days for it to cure before exposing the repairs to water. The cured product has a smooth finish, similar to the porcelain itself, although it is raised slightly above the surrounding surface. I suppose if you were really OCD you could do some wet sanding to achieve a perfectly level surface, but I didn't bother with this. So far the repairs have survived two long, hot showers and seem to be holding up well. The only thing preventing me from giving 5 stars is that the color match is not perfect; the compound is somewhat whiter than standard bathtub porcelain. But unless you look closely, it does not jump out at you. Once mixed, the compound must be used within 24 hours, so make sure you identify all needed repairs before beginning.

there should be a better way to apply this maybe a sponge but the little nail brush would be OK for those who do their nails. As for the paint it seems to work OK but the existing color showed through at first but when dried it was gone, maybe it leveled out?

Durable, good color match, and a good consistency. Some touch-up paints end up being watery, requiring many coats. Others glop on. This one settles in, and can hold a pretty good thickness. The post-mixing pot life is enough that you can go back and hit your touch up once. One note on rust. Rust is insidious, and it will come back time-and-time again. If you have rust spots, you need to neutralize the rust BEFORE painting it. Sand the nick to remove as much rust as possible, apply a rust reforming agent (I like Naval Jelly, it is phosphoric acid in a gel suspension which converts the iron oxide into iron phosphate) and THEN paint. Proper preparation is key with any paint job. There have been some comments about rust showing through, and if the surface was properly prepared, this would not have happened.

This product worked well to cover up the area around my drain that was starting to rust. you can tell that the area has the paint on it but it looks 10x better then it did before. It will not make your tube look like new but is defiantly worth a try if you are just trying to fix a small issue. My only suggestion is to make sure you not only clean the area but to sand the rust areas really good before applying if that is the issue for you. i thought i had gotten all the rust off from one area but did not and now the rust is showing through the white paint so i will need to remove the paint and fix the rust issue then redo it.

First of all, the epoxy is less resilient than the Rust-Oleum appliance touch up, which does not have to be mixed and can be used for months, not within 24 hours. The appliance touch up is also a darker white, which matches way better. This stuff is super bright white. It stuck out like a sore thumb even on my super bright white bathtub. Cannot recommend.

Just follow the instructions, easier than I thought. They don't mention there is a brush in the B bottle, I found it out when putting the A bottle contents into the B bottle. They mean it when they state it is only good for 24 hours. Sometimes I waited longer than the recommended 15 minutes between applications, sanded down the higher stuff, and reapplied. Overall, it took me approx 20 hours to get it where I wanted it. I might mention that the white color is really white. I like the stuff, it worked!

One of the bottles arrived almost empty. The liquid was poured on the package. Waste of money.

Works great

Great for touch up. Levels quite well on drying and lasts - posted a year later

This product took care of the chips with a nice smooth finish. My tub has more gloss than the Touch Up, so it is visible.

Initially I thought it was fabulous- ( did shower recess ) but after a few showers it started flaking off.
