if I was going to tear everything out, makes no sense to go back with a refinished/f spray painted tub
Exactly. Seems as though if sandblasting is a difference maker, then the process is useful for claw foot tubs, but not built ins.
I'm reading about them using different acids to scar up the old finish and then putting on a new finish. If they go that route, i would want a reputable company. Acid that isn't neutralized going down your pipes cant be a good thing.

From one of the links posted:
Not sure what the "industrial process" is but if it it truly bonded on the chemical level, I wouldn't be too worried about chipping. I'm sure there's more than one way to skin this cat so asking a lot of questions from the contractor is very important. If they claim it's chemically bonded, I'd like to see their information that scientifically explains how. Not just a story from a salesman.

Then we will prepare the surface using our industrial cleaning process. Next, we will mask off and protect all ajacent areas and set up ventilation equipment to reduce overspray and odors. We will then apply and cure our exclusive adhesive coating. While we are reglazing your tub we can also apply an "Anti-Skid" surface to the tub floor to help reduce slip and fall accidents. Finally our high quality Tub Top Coat Refinishing Material is applied and chemically bonded to the surface.
