Usually about 3 to 5 hours.

My tub was refinished by someone else and is peeling. What happened?

Most likely you have a surface bonding problem. The company that refinished your tub most likely used either inexpensive, inferior materials, and/or poorly trained personnel. At Advanced Refinish we only use the finest materials and our technicians are highly trained. To achieve the beautiful tub you desire will require us to strip the old finish off.
