Painting Over Bathroom Tile?

Painting over bathroom tiles is possible. The process, however, can be very difficult. There are some important preparation steps to look into if you are doing this on your own and that’s what we are going to talk about next.

Preparation

When preparing to paint your bathroom tile, you want to make sure your tile is clean. Remove any dirt or build-up of bacteria that may have been there over time. Using a wet sponge and cleaning chemicals is always best for this process. After that’s completed you need to sand the tile down to where there’s no sparkle remaining. This will make it simpler for the paint to stay. After the sanding handle is done you need to form sure all of the remaining tidy and buildup is evacuated. After this has been completed, we will move onto the painting stage.

Painting

Now that we have taken the necessary steps to move on, we can now begin with painting. You want to find a color that you are happy with. When choosing paint, you want to choose either latex or epoxy coated paint. After you have coated the tiles with the first layer of paint, you want to repeat this a few more times. If you are the least bit worried of whether you can handle this job, finding contractors that know how to do this kind of thing is never a bad idea.

As we mentioned, contractors know what they are doing. If you have a project in progress or have one coming up we suggest seeking professional help.
