Typically the spot /handles and escutcheons can be removed from the top without disturbing the valves and such that are fastened from below.

Thanks for the response Mike; I wish that was the case for us. As soon as we unscrew an escutcheon, though, the valve/jet assembly will fall through.Typically the spot /handles and escutcheons can be removed from the top without disturbing the valves and such that are fastened from below.

Sorry if I wasn't clear in my original post. She does not want to paint the tub. Rather, she just wants to paint the jets/escutcheon/spout/etc. So all that chrome stuff in the picture I linked to above is going to get paint. Good tip though; I hadn't thought of that.Use wide tape and cover them completely. Then with a sharp razor knife cut the excess away .
Are you painting the inside of the tub? Takes special paint to stick there- what are you /she using?
