* Clean the surface of the bathtub first and then apply a thin coat of auto wax using a damp cloth.

* Your refinished bathtub needs to be waxed once every 1-3 months after the first waxing.
* Clean the surface regularly with liquid soap or body wash which is safe for the surface and rinses away easily to prevent soap residue.
* Maintain the faucet and check the caulking to prevent erosion and moisture damage.
* Keep the bathroom well ventilated.
