Surface Pros prides its self on keeping up to date with the latest technology in the refinishing business.
1. When we arrive we will set up a high volume exhaust system to remove any excess fumes and odors. We start by cleaning the porcelain with heavy duty detergents.
2. Then we etch the porcelain with an acid compound. Some companies promote an "acid free" process as a marketing tool, portraying etching as unsafe. The acid used can burn the technician if proper care safety steps are not used, however the acid will not harm your plumbing and is no stronger than typical drain cleaners. Surface Pros also employs a chemical bonding agent that helps to fuse the coating to the porcelain.
3.The final step in the process is to apply an industrial grade Aliphatic Urethane, which when cured will be very high gloss, have a strong scratch resistance and will be resistant to most chemicals.
