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: Will ammonia damage an acrylic tub?

• <div><p>Ammonia is a powerful household cleaner, but don&rsquo;t use it for your acrylic tub. Ammonia or cleaners containing this ingredient can break down the surface of the acrylic bathtub and leave it with permanent damage. Instead, try a gentler store-bought acrylic tub cleaner, or a homemade baking soda cleaner.</p></div>

Q: How long does resurfacing or refacing typically last?

• <div><p>Properly maintained, resurfacing typically lasts 5-10 years. Factors like surface usage and exposure to chemicals affect longevity.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to fix a peeling bathtub?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-bathtub-refinishing-cost.htm">Bathtub refinishing costs</a> an average of <b>$460</b> and includes removing the finish, sanding or acid etching the surface, priming it, and applying an epoxy coating. After the coating cures, the bathtub should look as good as new, and the finish should last between seven and 10 years. Because bathtub refinishing requires hazardous chemicals, you should call a bathtub refinisher to do the job.</p></div>

Q: What happens if I don’t caulk my bathtub?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t caulk your bathtub, then there won&rsquo;t be a watertight seal between your bathtub and the wall tile surrounding it. As a result, water can seep into the wall and the floor and cause the perfect breeding grounds for mold and mildew. Not only does this require costly repairs, but mold can be harmful to those breathing it. </p></div>
