A Beautiful Modern Bath Can be yours for a FRACTION of the cost of remodeling.


PORCEGLAZE is a system for resurfacing your old and out-dated bathtubs, ceramic tiles, vitreous china and sinks without removing them from their present position in your home, office, factory, etc. PORCEGLAZE is a polymerized resinous compound film whose slow flow-out time gives it that factory finish look. For repairs our exclusive method of preparing your substrate surface assures you a positive bond. Once your tub, tiles and fixtures have been PORCEGLAZED you can expect years of satisfactory service.

Low COST

No need to remove bathtub, wall tiles and plumbing. Eliminates the mess of rebuilding and replacing bathroom fixtures and hardware. PORCEGLAZING is done on location in hours, instead of days or weeks with SAVINGS of $1,500 or more.

TRUE VALUE

Your existing fixtures are a better value today...whether they have a classic look or are modern in design. Now you may retain the fine workmanship of the past, with a modern day color scheme. PORCEGLAZE gives you the opportunity to resurface not only your bathtub and sink, but also ceramic tiles for a completely updated decor.

DURABLE

PORCEGLAZE is stain, acid, alkaline, solvent and abrasion resistant, and has been formulated to resist temperature extremes (thermal shock).
