Zero-VOC Surface Restoration

Restore your bathroom without the strong coating odor.

A Zero-VOC, odorless restoration option for eligible bathtubs, tub-and-tile surrounds, tiled shower walls, and walk-in showers.

If strong coating odors or disruption have made you hesitate to resurface your bathroom, ILS offers another restoration option. This professional two-component coating technology creates a thick, self-leveling, high-gloss finish and is installed through the structured ILS repair-first restoration process.

A different kind of resurfacing experience.

Homeowners often have practical questions before resurfacing: Will the coating create a strong odor? Will the process disrupt the home? How will the finish handle moisture, cleaning, bath mats, and daily use?

ILS now offers an alternative coating option for eligible surfaces that combines Zero-VOC, odorless coating technology with a thick, self-leveling finish and the ILS professional restoration process.

Zero-VOC Coating Technology

A Zero-VOC coating option for eligible restoration projects where minimizing coating-related odor and disruption is an important priority.

Odorless Application Experience

A different coating experience for occupied homes and suitable environments where strong refinishing odors are a major concern.

Thick, Self-Leveling Finish

Two-component coating chemistry with self-leveling characteristics designed to create a smooth, substantial, high-gloss restored surface.

Designed for Everyday Bathroom Use

The coating technology is positioned for resistance to bath mats, cleaners, and moisture. Proper care still matters, but practical daily bathroom use is part of the value.

Designed to Resist Chipping and Peeling

The thick-film restoration finish is designed for durability and resistance to common coating failures such as chipping and peeling.

Professional ILS Installation

The coating is only one part of the result. Evaluation, repair, preparation, application control, curing, and inspection all contribute to the finished restoration.

A restored bathroom should still feel like a bathroom.

Bathrooms are made to be used. Water, moisture, regular cleaning, daily showers, daily baths, and bath mats are part of real life.

This restoration option is designed around practical bathroom use, with coating technology positioned for resistance to bath mats, cleaners, and moisture.

Proper care and approved cleaning practices still apply.

Beautiful finish. Practical use. Professional restoration.

Real Project

Corner jetted tub, finished with our Zero-VOC system.

This corner jetted bathtub was restored using the ILS Zero-VOC, odorless coating option. The tile surround stayed in place, and the homeowner was able to move through the rest of the home during application without a strong refinishing odor.

The result: a smooth, high-gloss, bright-white finish ready for everyday use.

The ILS Process

The finish starts before the coating is applied.

A premium coating cannot compensate for poor preparation. ILS combines advanced coating technology with a structured restoration process based on the condition of the existing surface.

01
Evaluate the Surface

Inspect substrate, existing coating, previous repairs, visible damage, and project conditions.

02
Repair Before Restoration

Address applicable cracks, chips, rust damage, fiberglass damage, deterioration, grout issues, and previous coating failures as required.

03
Professionally Prepare

Clean, decontaminate, and prepare the surface according to its material and condition.

04
Controlled Two-Component Application

Properly prepare and professionally apply the coating using the appropriate controlled method for the surface.

05
Cure & Inspect

Allow proper curing, complete final inspection, and provide return-to-service and care instructions.

Not every coating system is the same.

Surface restoration systems can differ in chemistry, film build, odor profile, application method, curing characteristics, substrate compatibility, and finished appearance.

ILS does not force every project into a one-system-fits-all approach. We evaluate the surface and project requirements before recommending the appropriate restoration process.

Check to see if your surface is eligible.

Before tearing out a bathtub, removing tile, or demolishing a walk-in shower, send us photos of the existing surface. The ILS team will review the surface condition, visible damage, previous coating history, and project requirements to help determine the appropriate restoration approach.

After you submit, please email at least 3 clear photos to ils@inlewofservices.com: the full surface, a close-up of any damage, and a wider bathroom photo. Include your name so we can attach them to your request.

Frequently asked questions.

What does Zero-VOC mean for this coating option?+

VOCs are volatile organic compounds that can contribute to strong odors and off-gassing during and after a coating is applied. A Zero-VOC coating option is formulated to minimize those emissions, which is why the application experience is described as odorless.

Does this coating have a strong refinishing odor?+

The Zero-VOC option is designed for an odorless application experience, which is a meaningful change from traditional refinishing coatings. It's often a better fit for occupied homes and environments where strong refinishing odors are a major concern.

Can this option be used on tile surrounds and walk-in showers?+

Yes, for eligible surfaces. ILS evaluates tub-and-tile surrounds, tiled shower walls, and walk-in showers for condition, previous coatings, damage, and moisture concerns before recommending this restoration option.

Can I use a bath mat on the restored surface?+

This coating technology is positioned for resistance to bath mats, cleaners, and moisture. Proper care and approved cleaning practices still matter, but practical daily bathroom use is part of what this option is designed for.

Is the finish resistant to moisture and cleaners?+

Yes — the coating is designed with real bathroom use in mind, including moisture and routine cleaning. ILS provides approved care instructions with every restoration.

Will this coating ever chip or peel?+

This coating option is designed to resist chipping and peeling, but performance depends on surface condition, preparation, installation, use, maintenance, and project-specific factors.

How do I know if my surface is eligible?+

Send us photos of the existing surface using the eligibility form on this page. The ILS team reviews condition, previous coating history, damage, and project requirements to help determine the appropriate restoration approach.
