The product description says it is for hot tubs and spas. Any experiences (good or bad) with using it in a bath tub? Any skin problems after use?

I use it only in my regular bathtub with good results (don't ever use a spa or hot tub). I tend to have dry skin (though no serious problems) and most products make it much drier - but not these Vit C tabs for the the bath (though it doesn't really moisturize my skin, either). One tab works in my somewhat small '50's era tub. It doesn't stop my bubble bath from working. I REALLY like this stuff because my tap water smells like chlorine, but not in the tub with this Vita c tab.

I purchased the shower filter & the tablets. I haven't found any cons to using these. My hair & skin both feel better after using these. I have also noticed my hair is much shinier. There's been so much said about the benefits of vitamin C, so I feel good about using these products.

I've been using it for a few months in a regular bath with no problems at all. I don't have any noticeable changes in my skin but I like the sensory and mental reassurance that it's neutralizing the nasty effects of chlorine on my health. I can definitely smell the change in the water. (And then I add Epsom salt with essential oils and soak worry free.)

I've been using this in my daughter's bath for 2 years now, and she hasn't had any bad reactions. If you have a good amount of chlorine in your water(we lived in Italy for 3 years and had so much chlorine in the water it was like bathing in a pool) this definitely helps. Her skin wasn't as dry as it was prior to using this product.

Not sure I can tell you I used it on my bathtub and had no issues. I also used it on my dishware but it tarnished my dishware and ruined it had to buy new dishware so I would be careful!

I only use as a body lotion after bath. Not sure you can use it on the face.

Im just a buyer like you, but I used mine on an old fiberglass type of tub that had a crack all the way through it, and it worked. this stuff dries hard and is thick, it will not lay flat or blend in , and if you not careful how you paint it on it can be unsmooth to the touch. But it dries good and hard and fast. and with my son standing in the tub and on the patch , and he is a big man, the patch is holding. might not be a pretty patch work but I think it will work in a hot tub.

I don't know. I will say this: I thought it worked great in my regular tub and someone recently told me to get chlorine test strips from a pool supply place - said she tested this and it did nothing. I've been using mine, thinking it removed the chlorine, etc. and now I want to test it! If it does work, great. If not, I'm going to be quite upset that I soaked extra long in the tub so often, believing I was not soaking up toxic chlorine!!!!!

If your skin is irritated due to chlorine, this is the product for you! Completely removes it, as well as the smell. Double check your hot tub chemicals to make sure all are balanced. Then use SwimSpray to soothe your skin

I'm using mine to make bath bombs, "fizzies" as one would use for a spa bath. Just do a little research and you'll findmany useful ideas and ways to use this product as non-toxic to remove stains, mildew, etc.

Good morning... Renew does NOT chlorinate the water. It's a water shock that's supposed to get rid of soap, deodorant, oils or anything that comes off our skin while using the hot tub. You should still use chlorine. I'm still partial to Leisure Time's Spa 56. Hope that helps.

Although I haven't used it for this purpose, i would expect if to perform well. I've only used it on my vinyl spa cover that bakes in the AZ sun. I've also used it on the vinyl strips on the hot tub steps to keep them from drying out. This product has many uses and so far is the best for vinyl

You must never ever run this outside of water.... It will ruin the element... And don't ever use it in a spa with a human in it at the same time.

I don't know. My guess is that it's not waterproof or maybe it just needs to set up or dry fully for several days before it can get wet. I would try it again and let it sit for several days before filling the spa. If that doesn't work you may have to look for a product that specifically says it is waterproof and will stay clear in wet applications. Good luck!

Used it around the tub and tile on the shower. It is water repellent, in that the water beads on. No leaks that I am aware of. Also used to seal cracks on the back porch sun slots made of plastic and it keeps the water out. Hope this helps.

Yes. I've been using it in a heated water bath. I'd guess about 48 hours of total use in average 140 degree Fahrenheit water without a problem.

This is not meant for use in a bathtub so I would suggest not using it in a bathtub. I would only use this for an aquarium type set up.

No, not recommended. This is designed for aquarium use, and does not have the heat tolerance required for the hot tub. Best bet is to find something form a pool and spa supply store that is designed to be used in the hot tub.

I use it on my face with no adverse effects. Actually, I use it pretty much all over my body after a shower.

I am wondering if one of these is enough to work in a small hot tub? I am looking for a hot tub that is around 250 gallons. 1. Would I need to use 2 of these or is one sufficient? and 2. would I use it all the time or periodically?
