Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was curious as to how it would really work and how course the texture really is, since I read many different reviews about it. Here is my experience and opinion.... I will begin by saying I did an extremely thorough job of cleaning the tub prior to applying it and we used a second bathroom in order to give it a full 24 hours to dry before using it. This was applied to a standard-issue porcelain shower/tub. I despise and refuse to use those rubber mats ("old lady bathtub mats" as I call them) as they are just gross. I previously used the peel & stick strips, but to be effective you needed a lot of them. In fairness, I am reviewing the product only after 4 days of use. I will update this as time passes and I see longer-term results. But, at this point I am very impressed. It was easy to apply - many mentioned the difficulty of seeing where you've applied it as you're painting it on. That is true due to its clear color - but I just used a drop light (a flash light would work too) held on an angle to view the wet areas as I was doing it. It dries clear - which I was happy about. In my opinion, the surface is not too gritty to the touch - I find it to be comfortable to stand on with just enough grit to do an effective job. I like how the application allows the entire tub floor to be evenly covered so there are no slick spots. I applied it over the entire bottom surface and slightly up the inside corners of the tub. When finished I had about 1/4 of the bottle left. As of now I am very pleased with the product. As for the price - it seems a bit high, but if I get a few years out of it I will be pleased. I'll give it a few months and update this review accordingly. Update - August 2017: Product still effective after over a year of 2 adult showers per day - although the length of my wife's showers should probably count as double :) NOTE: I purchased this item on Amazon for full price and have no affiliation to the seller. I try to write helpful, unbiased and insightful reviews because I also read reviews prior to making my own buying decisions. I notice many reviews lack helpful information, are not well written or give poor reviews based on not reading directions, inexperience or failing to read the product details prior to purchasing. Writing valuable reviews helps pay it forward.
