Tub Re-Glazer
Does anyone know of someone that re-glazes porcelain tubs/sinks in the Cabo San Lucas area?

I really want to re-glaze it, cheaper and easier until I gut renovate the bathroom.

I redid a 1950s-vintage enameled cast iron tub. Got a specialist to do it for about $300 (in san diego). It came out great, and has held up great.
Way better than tearing out/replacing. The 50 year old tub was coral pink enamel -- now is crisp white and shiny like new.
Woke!
Hands off!

My buddy inherited his folk's place, it's got a pink tub, toilet, and sink basin in one bathroom. Classic pink tiles with blue trim as well.
OG Retro! It would be a travesty to deface it. We all think it's priceless and beautiful, now a classic part of the house.
Pink is the new white. Purple, the new black

I kept the original tile work. Just redid the sink and tub; the original enamel had gotten pretty dull, chipped with time.
Woke!

Let’s refocus on the question! Joking guys.
But any help finding a re-glazer in the Los Cabo’s area would be great.
Help!

"My buddy inherited his folk's place, it's got a pink tub, toilet, and sink basin in one bathroom. Classic pink tiles with blue trim as well." OMG -
my grandmother has the same thing - plus sparkly vinyl pink-gray on the floor.
Anyway, you can buy kits and apply an enamel coating on your tub. I had one done professionally - they used a buffer to make it perfectly smooth and
then polished. Looks like a brand new tub.
