How do I know if my tub is fiberglass or acrylic?

• <div><p>There are a few ways to check whether your tub is fiberglass or acrylic. If your tub is a color other than white, then your tub is likely acrylic (as fiberglass tubs are usually white). Check to see if there is discoloration on the bottom of the tub, because if it’s yellowed, then you can be fairly sure it’s fiberglass.</p><p>Also, fiberglass tubs have thinner edges and are cool to the touch. Acrylic, on the other hand, is either room temperature or warm to the touch.</p></div>

Can you shower right after caulking?

• <div><p>No. You should let the caulk completely dry before you expose it to moisture. It’s safest to wait at least a full day before showering where you’ve recently caulked. Showering before caulk is fully dry can lead to a poor seal, meaning water can seep into cracks and cause damage and mold growth. </p></div>

Q: Can you use Epsom salt in a reglazed or refinished bathtub?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use Epsom salt in a refinished bathtub. The salt will not harm the new glaze finish chemically, although it may rough up the surface finish a bit. Consult a professional bathtub refinisher prior to using Epsom salt on your bathtub to ensure it won&rsquo;t damage its finish.</p></div>

Q: Is rust in the bathtub harmful?

• <div><p>Rust in your bathtub occurs when iron in the water or on metal components in your tub are exposed to oxygen, but while it&rsquo;s unsightly, it won&rsquo;t make bathing dangerous. However, if the rust appears under or around your tub spout or shower head, it could indicate that you have high levels of iron in your water. Drinking water with small amounts of iron in it usually doesn&rsquo;t pose a health risk, but you might want to consider installing a water softener. The presence of iron could indicate that you have hard water, which can create some plumbing issues.</p></div>

Q: Can resurfacing or refacing be a DIY project?

• <div><p>While certain kits make DIY possible, professionals ensure durability and quality of finish, which is vital for high-moisture areas like baths.</p></div>
