Problem: Old, surface-damaged fiberglass shower pan of an unusual size, so I can’t replace it. Structurally sound, no cracks, no movement. A purely cosmetic repair is needed.
My heart’s desire: a coating, either a liquid, gel, or membrane, that will adhere firmly and permanently to the rough-surfaced, stained pan. It needs to resist water to 120 deg, soaps and detergents, bare foot traffic. It needs to be opaque, preferably white. It needs to have a non-skid finish when wet. It needs to be self-leveling, so it looks good, not amateurish. A spray can will obviously give a nicer result than a brush.
Googling the topic yields a lot of epoxy paint type things, some polyurethane paints, no membranes. Can someone recommend a product and a technique? I’m thinking of epoxy + sand or ground quartz.

re-gel coat it...
ecerything you need is a West Marine...
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
The inside of a fiberglass shower is essentially identical to the outside of a fiberglass boat. Go to a boat place and look over your options.
