 Bathtub Refinishing/tub reglazing ethical standards released/ Consumer protection
The bathtub refinisher then has to gear up for the refinishing coating or paint application which is usually sprayed on (I wouldn't trust someone who claims to use a roller or brush to apply the finish).
Unfortunately, most of the water borne coatings are not adequate for the moist environment in a bathtub and this leaves the refinisher with few choices when it comes to coatings that will work.
The average life span of a refinished bathtub is (automotive paint) 1 to 3 years depending on use.

 The Bathtub Curve and Product Failure Behavior (Part 1 of 2)
The bathtub curve consists of three periods: an infant mortality period with a decreasing failure rate followed by a normal life period (also known as "useful life") with a low, relatively constant failure rate and concluding with a wear-out period that exhibits an increasing failure rate.
Note that the bathtub curve is typically used as a visual model to illustrate the three key periods of product failure and not calibrated to depict a graph of the expected behavior for a particular product family.
In this issue, Part One, we have introduced the concept of the bathtub curve and discussed issues related to the first period, infant mortality, as well as the practices, such as burn-in, that are used to address failures of this type.

I am even so decadent in the bathtub that when the water starts to turn slightly lukewarm, I will let some of the water out of the tub and refill it with hot water.
And so it was that after relaxing in the tub for an hour or so, letting the stress of my war with the clog slowly fade away, feeling relaxed and very very happy that I reached out with my toes to drain some of the cold water out.
I got out of the tub almost immediately, located a towel, and dripped all the way down the hall, through the bedroom, and around the corner to the second bathroom where the tub was still somewhat full of old water from my last plunging experiment.

 Watch Your Bundle of Joy In The Bathtub
Nearly one in three young children are left alone in the bathtub by their parents for some amount of time, putting them at risk for drowning, according to a report released recently.
Although the study concentrated on bathtubs as a potential drowning location, children are also at risk of drowning in high standing buckets and even toilets, Simon said.
At young ages, he explained, children tend to be more top-heavy, with large heads, so "if they tip into (a bucket or other object), it's a situation where they just can't tip out of it," and can drown in a small amount of water.
