Bathtub refinishing is a cost effective alternative over replacement remodeling, that can repair and renew any outdated, damaged or hard to clean surface. Refinishing is used for a variety of reasons, even simply to update the wrong color bathtub, vanity, tile or countertop!
Using Miracle Method to refinish your bathtub will add 10 to 15 years to the life of your existing tub, giving it a whole new look and it will remain beautiful with proper care. What 
exactly is proper care and the best way to care for your newly refinished bathtub?
It’s pretty simple really, the same way the manufacturer recommends caring for a new bathtub. Here are four great tips to help you keep your Miracle Method refinished tub looking like new for years to come:
- Use only non-abrasive, liquid cleaners – We recommend Mira-Clean, our exclusive Miracle Method cleaner that is specifically formulated to safely clean refinished surfaces. Mira-Clean can also be used on non-refinished surfaces.
- For best results, spray the surface and let it penetrate for 3-5 minutes before scrubbing with a cleaning pad or brush designed for use on Teflon surfaces.
- Do not allow any cleaners or chemicals to remain on a refinished surface for any extended period of time. Rinse thoroughly and wipe the surface with a soft sponge or cloth.
- To extend the life of a refinished tub, apply an automotive polymer polish or Gel-gloss every six months. Meguiar’s M20 or Finish Kare 2180 are good choices.
These simple tips will extend the life of your refinished bathtub while keeping your tub free of harmful bacteria, mold and mildew.

I’m considering having my bathtub refinished, so these tips will be good to know so that I can keep my tub in fairly good condition afterward. You made a great tip about how I should only use non-abrasive liquid cleaners. I’ve been trying to remove stains in my tub by using abrasive cleaners, so that would explain why the surface looks very dull. I’ll make sure to change to a liquid cleaner that will be gentler on my tub’s surface. Thanks for the tips!

That’s a good tip to use only non-abrasive cleaners. That way you won’t scrub off your finish as soon. I’ll have to research what cleaners are abrasive for my own home projects.
Hello,
Our finishes do not scrub off and with proper care and maintenance your refinished surface with Miracle Method should last 15 years or more. Miracle Method produces and offers a very effective bath and shower cleaner called Mira-Clean. It is safe for refinished tubs, yet equally effective on non-refinished tubs and showers.
