Restoration of cast iron bath

This process is characterized primarily by the fact that the composition is not applied by roller or brush, and flowing under its own weight and is held on the surface due to its viscosity. A couple of words about the bath - a sample of Chinese origin, who was swimming about 45 days from Guangzhou to Peter in the storm season, and then by road from St. Petersburg to Moscow.
