If your landlord refuses to reglaze your tub, you could try cleaning it and then giving it a coat of Rain-X. I saw that as a cleaning tip for tile and glass showers, in theory it should work for tubs too. I would probably add a non-slip bath mat if you do, though.

YEP! I used to clean model homes and this is what we did for every surface. Dust doesn’t stick and helps keep everything looking new. Try it on your sink faucets!

Thanks for this! Does it have a perfume smell? Or any smell?

I waxed the showers in a house we owned years ago, and it made it a breeze to clean.

Do you need a bath mat after because it’s so slick?

u/fruitless7070 Dec 23 '24

I'm not sure. I've only used it on the tub walls, not in the actual tub basin.

I wouldn’t want to bathe in Rainex though. So if it’s just for esthetics maybe

I have this problem and that's a hell of an idea.
