A claw-foot tub found in a field was refinished and painted to match the walls.
A New Finish
Too bad for the horses, Donna had the ability to see potential in the claw-foot tub. All it took was refinishing the piece
to repair defects in the porcelain. This can cost between $500 and $1,000; a new claw-foot tub typically costs more, with
prices starting around $1,500. The refinishing process involves sanding, acid-etching, priming and painting the interior of
the tub, and sandblasting the outside. The exterior is then primed and painted. Donna chose the same blue for the tub that
is on the walls. Now the fixture looks new without losing its old-fashioned character.
