Yea it only takes about 2-3 days for grout to cure fully so youre definitely good.

Nice work. And btw, it's not too terribly expensive to change the color of your tub if you don't like the pink.

I don't mind the pink at all. Once I have a shower curtain up you don't notice from the outside. I would rather have it pink or any other color than to have a fiberglass, POS tub that would crack and fall apart after the first use.

No, he's proposing what I was going to propose... don't rip it out, change the color

Good job!

Yep. There are epoxies (I believe) that can be used to simply paint over the existing tub. There are companies that do it if you aren't comfortable doing it yourself. It's basically like painting your tub, works VERY well and isn't that expensive.

I've heard of this. At this point I'm not worried about the pink, so it will stay. If at a later time I decide to change, then I will investigate further.

Thanks. I didn't see any reason why I couldn't do it. Every one in my family though I was crazy for trying it, especially my Mom.
