Attention Bathtub Refinishers : Many years ago Bathtub Refinishing the Topcoat (topkote) of choice product codes always began with 379,359,389,hs224, bar-235, this article may interest you. Feel like an old friend passed on. The sad part is that the formulas are going back to International and if and when re-introduced will NOT BE MADE to EXCEED the SPECS like before. That's what priced them out of the Market Which explains why we all liked those numbers so much. On the Positive side 2.5 Years ago I used 379 as a sort of " YARD STICK" for the Shark-Thane Project. I find this a comforting thought to know after the fact that were a great bathtub refinishing coating ended is where I began.
