    I did. Took about an hour or so and we had to let it dry for a few days. Can't remember the cost but it wasn't ridiculous. The fumes were atrocious though. The bath looked great for about 3-4 years but now it's kind of groggy again so I'm considering just getting rid of it altogether.

    Lots of limescale or shoddy workmanship? 3-4 years is quite soon for it to be going groggy

    Google brought up this which gives an idea of pricing

    Got my teeth re-enameled a while back.

    Well I say re-enameled, I just coated them with white cake frosting and let it set.

    It was cheap and delicious but only lasted about two minutes when I started to lick and chomp it all off.

    OP , if you change your mind and don't want to do it, I'll take the bath off your hands - I need one for a job.
