Ya I hired a top rated company on HomeStars to refinish my tub. He oversprayed one part and there was a large drip mark down from side of tub from top to bottom of tub about midway along long side of tub. I called and person who answered stated she has seen this from time to time and too much paint applied which yes I agreed because I’ve done spray painting before. Put through to owner and he said it’s because my faucet was dripping. Faucet is at end of tub almost 3 feet away from drip!. I just replaced the valve previously as the single lever handle started getting tough to rotate. It was not leaking and a moot point as its nowhere near the drip. Also we all showered the day before to ensure no residual water would drip the following day when work was to be done. He came to respray and it was terrible. There’s a defined raised rectangular newly painted area measuring about 5 inches wide by 16 inches long to bottom of tub covering where drip was. And the overspray now on tiles and around repair on tub because it was obviously not taped off so now was rough feeling to touch and was not cleaned off tiles and not polished on rest of tub by his “repair”. And within 1 year I began to have pieces chip off and now about 8 years later, I have about 15 areas of chipped paint. Never again. I’ll check how those acrylic tub overlays are like Bath Fitters when I ready.
