If it takes 10 hrs to drain a bath tub (5700 cm^3), what is the flow rate in kg/s?

I'm not sure what the unit conversion between cm ^3 and kg is...





If it takes 10 hrs to drain a bath tub (5700 cm^3), what is the flow rate in kg/s?
velocity(speed)= mass/time





so basically velocity=5700/10





velocity=570kgcm3/h

How to refinish a claw foot bath tub?

Take a look at this web site http://integritycoatings.com/ They give some pretty good information on what you have to do to paint ceramic tile or bath tub; as you can see it is not a easy job. But they give out a free sample. You probably should have a professional tub refinisher in your area estimate the job. It might be worth it to have them come do it or you might just p/u some stuff called ';Klenks'; which you can brush on , but it will not look as good or last as long.How to refinish a claw foot bath tub?

you could frame a box around it.go the height of tub about 12in. wide then tile.this finishes it off and you have a great look.
Buy a new one or have it done professionally. The do it yoursefl stuff looks horrible and comes off in a month.
I have one in one of my bathrooms. It, of course is very old and I just put a coat of white paint on the outside of it and then took some of the ivy boarder I used on the walls and put it on the tub. What a conversation piece it is!! There are lots of options, use your imagination and have fun!!
Clip it's nails.
I did one myself about 2 years ago plus an old pedestal sink. i bought the kit at lowes, it's a 2 stage process but not hard to do and it cost under 20 bucks, the only problem is you cannot use the tub for about 5 days until it totally dries and it should be in an area that is pretty much dust free.go to lowes or home depot and in the paint section and tell them what you want to do and they will get it for you, also they can tint it any color you want.
pros use epoxy paint

I just moved into a new house and theres years of paint build up in the bath tub, how do i get rid of it?

someone please help, its taking the hole look off the bathroomI just moved into a new house and theres years of paint build up in the bath tub, how do i get rid of it?
Well, you could buy a tub liner. It's like a shell that goes in your tub and makes it look like a brand new tub! or this may be a bad idea but maybe you could use paint thinner? just let it soak and scrub a little but remember that you have to dispose of it properly, you cant just let it go down the drain. i think the best thing to do would be to go to your local home depot and ask someone for help, i'm sure they could answer you question and you can buy the correct products in the store. Good luck!I just moved into a new house and theres years of paint build up in the bath tub, how do i get rid of it?
This question baffles me, why is there paint in the bathtub at all? I am a painter and this does not even make sense. You can buy paint remover in a can, but might damage the tubs surface. Try on a small area first. You might, after removing paint, be able to have someone come in a resurface the tub. There are many companies that do this. Or, literally just get a new tub, will really be better in the long run.
I would put paint thinner over it and use a putty scraper to pry it off. Make sure to let the thinner sit a few so it can absorb some.

Want pant my bath tub is that possible?

Yes.. you can definitely take your pant of in the bath tub!!!Want pant my bath tub is that possible?
i think you mean paint!Want pant my bath tub is that possible?
Yes, but you will never be able to scour it again. Use epoxy paint make for bathtubs, prepare as directed on can. Apply as directed. Will hold up ok, but will have to be redone done the line. Good luck
panting in your bathtub eh??????? are you alone, or is someone making you pant?


please send pictures either way.
yeah you can. Try using spray paint.
It all depends upon what material has been used to manufacture ur bathtub.If it is porcelain or acrylic as these r usually used for bathtubs then it is not possible. You better buy a new bathtub.
Do you mean refinish your bathtub? If so you can have it done professionally or you can get a do-it-yourself kit from Home Depot. It looks really nice as I have a neighbor around the corner who did hers.
  • black lipstick
  • Can I use enamel or acrylic to cover a VERY small chip in my bath tub paint?

    They make a special paint for tubs and sinks to repair chips. It isn't expensive and you can get it at any big box store or your local hardware store.Can I use enamel or acrylic to cover a VERY small chip in my bath tub paint?
    Neither will give you durability or long term performance in a wet environment like a bathroom. You don't say what the tub is made of but no matter the composition, fiberglass, enamel over cast iron, or acrylic, each has its own paint manufactured specifically for touch ups on those surfaces. You really need to know what the tub is made of and then head to the home improvement center to purchase the correct touch up paint for it.

    I have on old antique bath tub with a serial number on it. Where can I price its value?

    I would try contacting an antique dealer in your area. They have books that tell you the going rate for these things.


    I would NOT try selling it on eBay until you got a professional to give you a price.





    I just found this great website with a lot of information on antique tubs:


    http://www.the-home-improvement-web.com/鈥?/a>





    It lists a couple of places to help identify, and price your tub:

    I think I would still try an antique dealer in your area first. They can look it up, and probably won't charge you anything. If you don't get anywhere there, you can try those other places.I have on old antique bath tub with a serial number on it. Where can I price its value?

    To price a old tub is not as easy as you might think.


    Most tubs sold today are new and customers know this BUT%26gt;


    Old tubs have alot of value in them.


    I have takein out old tubs of houses and sold them for 2000.00 plus I even sold 1 for 7500.00


    There are more people then you think that want old tubs and will pay the price for them.


    You could try E-bay ^ with a reserved price (high amount) and see what hits.


    Also your local plumbing supply places might know who is looking for 1.
