The tub/ shower has texture unlike the sleek mirror shine that it originally was. And, you will want get the second layer of sand on the floor. You slide around in the basic amount.
As frustrating that it took THREE attempts to get my tub/shower to have a minimally textured, the lying and rude guys were the worst part.
The first four hour work resulted in a LOT of TEXTURE. Gregg, who was their “best installer in Maine and New Hampshire,” told me the texture was due to the surface of my shower walls. Umm, excuse me, my shower walls were sleek and shiny.
Then, the rude shop manager came to sand off the texture. Due to no working light installed in the shower yet, I took a flashlight to look at the walls to now show him the POCK MARKS. He said, “No disrespect, but no one will ever look at your shower with a flashlight.” Feeling disrespected, I told him that I would call the home office and get his work fixed. Like a petulant child, he said, “Well go ahead and do that.”. To his credit, he didn’t stick out his tongue at me.
Third time was the best finished work. The original guy came back and told me that the “orange peel” texture was because the trucks are left out in the 30 degrees or less temperature with all their product left inside there. First of all - there WAS texture for it to be called “orange peel. Second, it was cold product and not my shower. I expressed surprise at why they even work on refinishing during those cold days. Gregg then told me it was new product. I was seriously not believing him at that point. Anyway, the third time, there was less texture. I was now told that with sanding and all that product that they use that there was no way it was going to be a sleek, smooth mirror finish that a new tub/shower has. WHY wasn’t I told that by the very nice sales guy??? I would not have had an unrealistic expectation.
