Resurfacing shower tray

[Spinney]

Has anyone tried one of these?

The shower tray works fine, but is a horrible dull grey colour. Using the above seems like less faff than getting a new, white shower tray fitted. If it works...

Wow! My bath could do with this

No, but my bottom squeaks in the bath.

I'm amazed that there's still Turquoise in their colour chart.

Avocado beats Turquoise as surprise surviving colour.

Does it come out in speech bubbles?

 

[Globalti]

Oooh no, that would trapped wind. This is just squeaking when I change my posture in the bath.

I can't imagine the finish will be very 'good', - it's very hard to get a good finish - on the original, the 'gelcoat' was reverse painted onto a smooth mould (then cast) , you would be paiting onto the 'tray' itself...

( in another life time I was a GRP laminater / mouldmaker of ... shower trays (these type) )

you might be better buying a new one, trade / surplus / secondhand...

I've seen it used on bath restorations in hotels and yes, the finish is shiny and bright but slightly dimpled, perhaps because it wasn't done very well. As above, I would prefer to refit the shower using Mermaid shower boards and a new tray because the sealing system is so good and mildew-free.
