Apply masking tape around the tub fixtures to protect them from the paint remover. Be especially sure to cover the base of the fixtures where they meet the tub itself since this is where the chemical remover is most likely to come into contact with the fixtures.
Put on your safety glasses and your protective gloves.
Read the instructions of the chemical paint remover and begin to apply the solution to the tub. Make sure to cover the entire tub. Follow instructions on the time the chemical remover should remain on the tub for best results.
Remove the debris of paint and chemical remover with a small, damp cloth.
Use a piece of sandpaper to finish removing any residue or paint that the chemical paint remover left behind.
Use another small, damp towel to remove any residue left behind from the sanding.
