Also, from where did you get your faucet and plumbing?<br /><br />I clicked over from your bathroom reveal; Very nice job! Your bathroom is very vintage and very charming. :)<br /><br />~Rachel @ The Olde Farmhouse on Windmill HillRachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127062928579434477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-469283221559378845.post-33747543374888187582012-04-16T10:10:43.354-05:002012-04-16T10:10:43.354-05:00whoops!

(bought it at menards) Here's a link: <br />http://www.rustoleum.com/CBGProduct.asp?pid=116 <br />Brett of course has a sprayer and used that. The kit does say it can be brushed on or rolled on as well. so, i would say read all about it on the kit and decide if you feel like you can do it. and then for the outside of the tub we just brush painted it with our wall color paint. that part is really easy as well.The Cottagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02172063323161102521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-469283221559378845.post-30907361031598641892012-04-13T11:14:32.674-05:002012-04-13T11:14:32.674-05:00Was refinishing your tub a huge job?
