Hi there,
I have a cast iron tub. The surface is not smooth anymore--1/3 of it is rough. It catches dirt real easy because of this.
A week ago a friend of mine came, and opened up the wall to fix the leaking valve inside the tile wall.
The tub wasn't covered up well, so I'm not sure if the concrete/soldering flux that fell on the tub made it worse as he worked in the area (see pic).
Was the tub damaged while the concrete sat on it?
The tub surface is quite bad right now (quite rough in half of the surface). I wonder what's a good recommendation (try clean it again, refinish, or get a new tub).
