Painting kitchen tiles
Comments (1)Painting existing tiles can be a great alternative if you don't have the time, money or inclination to re-tile. It wouldn't look exactly like new tiles of course, but can make a great difference to your kitchen! It really comes down to preparation and application. You need to take the time to ensure your surfaces are prepared properly. Remember to clean and prime well, as this will ensure a better top coat finish. Another tip is to sand slightly between prime coats to keep the surface smooth. Your top with will look a million times better. How you apply the paint can make a difference too. Slapping the paint directly onto tiles with a paintbrush will obviously not look as good as if you were to use a foam roller. Spraying paint onto the surface will give you the best outcome....See MoreWhat colour to paint kitchen cupboards?
Comments (11)What look are you hoping to achieve? When you say 'update' can you elaborate?This kitchen looks new. Compared to my old Barbie pink, laminate, falling apart beast, this is a dream! I personally would never paint a kitchen myself- especially not one like this. Lots of sharp edges means lots of future chips/scratches. If it is 2-pack poly you could get it resprayed. I can see scope to change the cabinet pulls, add a plant or 2 to the shelves, bigreaders suggestions about moulding are awesome. Even if you got a cabinet maker to pull out the open-shelves and replace them with a timber or timber-laminate as a contrast. All this would soften it and add personality. I can see your roller blind on the window- changing that to a roman blind with a pattern/texture/colour through it would add character too....See MoreBrushing vs Spray painting for kitchen cabinets
Comments (1)It does cost a lot to have cupboards spray painted in situ because of all the taping up and preparation. I would be taking the cupboard doors and drawer fronts off and getting a quote from a 2pac spray painter that you would be taking these items to. Then perhaps you get get a painter to quote on those parts of the carcass that need painting and seek their advice about the finish....See MorePainting laminate kitchen cupboards
Comments (6)Is it a wood laminate , or formica or those plastics ? Some will paint up better than others . POSSIBLY , painting the cabinets themselves in a white , but leaving the doors as they are , may work -- theres too much wood look there . And I'd redo the tiles -- even if redoing in 5 years , I'd spend the $500 or less and redo , regrout , etc . Possibly try removing the grout and re-doing in white for a more modern look , but only from a distance haha -- personally I'd go for full tile replacement ....See More- 8 years ago
