ArmoGlaze is a premium refinishing system manufactured in the USA. It allows you to restore worn or damaged surfaces in bathrooms and kitchens. Unlike conventional refinishing products that produce strong fumes, ArmoGlaze is odorless and contains zero VOCs, ensuring safe indoor use around your loved ones and pets. We avoid using strippers or stripping solutions; instead, we use a standard bathtub cleaner. Our unique pour-on technique results in a finish that is ten times thicker than typical sprays, providing a durable, long-lasting surface that resists chipping and peeling. It is the perfect professional and DIY option for achieving a gorgeous, high-gloss, factory-quality finish on your bathtub, shower base, or sink.
Our product works well on fiberglass, acrylic, enameled steel, cast iron, and porcelain surfaces.
Yes! Because it's a pour-on, self-leveling product, you don't need to be an expert with a spray gun. You pour and spread. Simplified prep (no acid etching) also makes it much easier and safer for first-time users.
The entire process takes 3-4 hours (primarily for prep) plus a 24-hour cure time. You have a 2-hour window to apply the enamel after mixing.
No. Our kit is 100% odorless and Zero-VOC, making it the safest choice for indoor DIY and professional projects. Our Test Results.
Most DIY kits use a roller, which leaves a bumpy "orange peel" texture. Armoglaze uses a unique Pour-On Application: you simply pour the material and spread it gently. The durable coating self-levels to eliminate brush strokes and roller marks, resulting in a smooth, professional finish similar to a new tub.

The bathroom temperature MUST be between 70°F and 75°F (21-24°C) for 24 hours.
- Too Cold (<70°F): The material becomes thick like cold honey and won't self-level, leaving waves.
- Too Hot (>78°F): It hardens too fast, trapping bubbles.
No. This is the advantage of ArmoGlaze. Our self-leveling formula is thick enough (approximately 1/16") to fill standard anti-slip textures, creating a smooth, new surface without aggressive grinding.
This is almost always a mixing error. You likely didn't mix Part A and Part B for the full required time (10 minutes manually), or the room was too cold (<65°F).
Yes. First, you need to wait 24 hours until it is completely dry. Then you need to sand it down to use 80-grip sandpaper. And after applying a new coat. watch the video
Apply painter's tape to cover the entire drain fitting. Press it down firmly, then use a sharp razor blade to carefully trim the excess tape around the rim so it fits perfectly.

YES. You must repair all damage before pouring.
Armoglaze is a coating, not a filler. If you pour over a deep chip, it will show through. Repair the damage with our DIY Tub Repair Kit, and sand it flush first to achieve a smooth, professional finish.
No. Bleach and abrasives can dull the glossy finish over time. Opt for "scrub-free" cleaners such as Scrubbing Bubbles, Lysol Basin & Tub, or just regular dish soap.
We suggest waiting 7 days before applying hair dye. Once this period passes, the surface becomes resistant, but it's important to rinse the tub promptly after dyeing to avoid staining.
