Does anyone know anything about resurfacing a countertop, bathroom vanity & bath tub?

AnswersGuy is absolutely right. You’ll hate yourself for trying to paint the tub yourself. The epoxy paint doesn’t last well and doesn’t clean well. If you want to do it right, pay someone to come out and reglaze your tub or else get a tub liner for $80 and cover over the existing tub. As for your vanity and counter, you don’t say what they’re made of, but as long as the sink isn’t part of the counter, you can prime it with a shellac primer called “Gripper” or “Bullseye”. Then paint it with an oil-based exterior paint (aka “alkyd”). Give it 2 coats of Helmsman Spar Urethane. Let it cure 3 full days before putting ANYTHING on it…and never use a cleaner on it again or it will discolor. The other option, and it’s probably cheaper long-run, is to buy a new countertop at Home Depot or Lowes. They’re already made and aren’t that expensive. No fuss or muss, and the only thing you’ll need to do is disconnect the plumbing for an hour (and it’s very easy), cut the caulk and remove the old one,
