Changing shower tile for something else

I want to change my shower tile to something else. I have well water and when we built our house I picked dark tile. Needless to say there is ugly buildup on the walls. I have tried all kinds of cleaning supplys. Now I would like to change it out or cover it up. I was looking at the stuff that is in hotels sometimes. I need help, What is that called?

If you're talking about the sheet goods stuff it is tile board.

There are companies that do bathtub refinishing that includes a plastic panel to cover up any existing tile. Not used them myself so I can't offer a recommendation, but apparently they're quite popular. If you didn't want to go down the tile removal/cover-&-replace road then this might be a viable solution. A quick google of "bathtub refinishing" should yield some results in your area.
