Bathroom Improvements

It’s amazing what a difference a little paint can make. We have been thinking of what we could do with the ugly gold vinyl in the shower since we bought the boat in March. We did a lot of research on different options…all seemed like a lot of work. Then it came to us…paint! I love paint. First we used a multi purpose latex primer from Sherwin Williams and then an Interlux Bright Side polyurethane paint for the top coat. Time will tell how it holds up, but anything will be better than what we had.

We have also replaced the wooden bathroom fixtures, they were very bulky, old and in my opinion “nasty”. We are looking for a curved shower rod that will give us a little more space in the shower. Little things that will make it feel more like home.

Update June 2023 - we repainted the vinyl with Lowes Valspar Duramax exterior paint and primer. Semi-gloss Ultra White. We painted some of the wood trim this time and I think it looks much better. I had repainted the walls several years ago.

  1. The paint job is holding up great. We've been taking two showers a day for the last seven months and it still looks as nice as did when I painted it. We love it.

    1. Thank you. No paint on the wood, just a little Liquid Gold and lighting is a little different.
