Anti Slip Floor Tiles |
Decorating and including accessories can only
do so much when it comes to updating a room that has a particularly odd color
of ceramic tile.
Paint does not like to stick to shiny slicks.
With a little bit of extra preparation, you can paint your tile and create an
enhancing surface that is much more visually appealing than the outdated look
you may currently have.
Ensure you don't paint any tile surface that
gets wet repeatedly. If you try to paint your shower surround or even your tub
itself, you will be cleaning paint chips out of the bottom of your tub within a
matter of weeks. It just won't stick. Things like your antique claw foot tub,
your toilet, and shower stall can be painted with a highly specialized product
that requires good skills.
There are 2 important criteria you must
consider if you want to paint ceramic tile and they are preparing the surface
properly and using the right type of paint. Here’s are the best ways to go
about painting your tile.
Preparation
Here are what you are to do to prepare tile
for painting:
·
Clean Tiles: Clean the tile to remove any dirt, mildew, or soap
scum using an abrasive bathroom cleaner. After cleaning, wipe the surface down
with a clean, wet sponge to remove any residue, and then allow the surface to
dry thoroughly.
·
Sand Tile: Lightly sand the tile with fine (180-220 grit)
synthetic grit sandpaper, such as silicon carbide or aluminum oxide, to take
the gloss off the glazed surface. An orbital sander will do a faster and better
job than hand sanding.
·
Remove Dust: Wipe down the surface with a damp cloth to remove any
dust and allow drying before painting.
Here are the materials needed to paint your
tiles:
Commercial tile cleaner, handheld orbital sanders,
220-grit sandpaper, clean cloth, and Oil-based primer. Paintbrush, 1/8-inch
paint roller, Oil-based paint, Paint thinner, and Rags.
We have two painting options for tiles and
they are
