In 2011 we renovated a bathroom and replaced the old bathtub. Before the renovation, on the old tub, the visible parts of the bathtub drain hole were corroding and staining the surrounding area of the tub, which was very unsightly.
Like an idiot, when I renovated and had a new tub installed, I did not firmly instruct the plumber to be sure to install a corrosion proof drain, in large part because he was a very non-communicative arrogant foreigner who kept saying "I know what I'm doing" every time I tried to discuss anything (he seemed to think I was challenging his technical competence).
QUESTION: Is there a way to permanently coat the drain surface so it does not corrode ? Would clear Rustoleum work ? If not, should I repeatedly wax or polish the surface to prevent corrosion ?
Will much 'preciate advice.
