Hi, I wonder if anyone could give us some advice. We are doing up our Buccanneer's shower room and want to paint the shower tray and sink, can anyone suggest suitable paint. It has been suggested that we use boat paint.

I would suggest that it is impossible to paint either.
Firstly it depends exactly what they are made of.
Secondly they will be contaminated with soap and despite very thorough cleaning it is almost impossible to remove all traces.
Thirdly,any contaminant will not allow the paint to adhere and it will flake off.
Lastly, as both items are subject to large temperature variations, the paint will crack and come away in the water.

i agree with damian the first time you step on it it will crack the paint also you will not get a good finish it will look worse tha when you started.
