PERSPECTIVE: Bathtub for Better Solutions Refinishing

Better Solutions is a local refinishing business specializing in what I like to call "real life Photoshop". The bathtub you see above has not been edited to hide any flaws. Refinisher Fraser Davies actually took the tub you see on the left and transformed it into the practically-new tub you see on the right. The process took three months of casual labour, which in itself is a feat considering the tub has been around for almost 100 years and was used as a planter since the mid-90s. The final image will become a vehicle wrap on a Better Solutions truck.
