The solutions to this are simple. Use car wax on that tub and it will shine very well. Make sure there are non-slip appliques in there first to keep someone from slipping. Don't wax those!

On the floor, use a product called Orange Glow Floor Restorer. Clean the floor first with a good wood cleaner and let it dry. I purchase this at Walmart and use it on the hardwood floors between tenants. You may have to make a couple applications. You will need a microfiber pad to apply it and it may take few bottles. But it helps to shine it up and make it look good again.

Just a question because I have a unit with a dull jetted tub. Any risks with the wax and the jets? When we installed the tub years ago (we lived in this unit at one time) I remember reading, no bubble baths, no bath oil etc, etc. Wouldn't the wax be a risk?

The jetted tub in our situation is not functioning. She had a leak from it prior to us moving in and that was one of the stipulations - that we not use the jets.

Use a liquid wax and an applicator. Apply to the applicator, not the tub itself to control where it goes. Try not to use of the floor if possible, to prevent falls. Buff well and it will shine. Also, you can use one of those marine waxes, like for boats. They are made for water.
