CAMERON, NOT SEEING THE SHOWER MYSELF,I CAN ONLY SPECULATE THAT THE SHOWER PAN WAS ORIGINALLY A HARD TROWEL SMOOTH FINISH. A PITTED SURFACE OF ANY TYPE IN A SHOWER WILL RAPIDLY BECOME A BREEDING GROUND FOR MOLD, MILDEW AND BACTERIA. BONDING A IS YOUR PROBLEM WHEN USING PAINTS. I THINK YOU COULD USE AN EPOXY PAINT, STARTING WITH A CLEAN DRY SURFACE. YOU MIGHT CONSIDER USING THINSET MORTAR AND OVER LAYING A CERMIC TILE FLOOR ( RAISE THE DRAIN COVER).
