Painting your ceramic tile
This post may contain affiliate links
Our one bathroom needed a little bit of a makeover. It was just....odd. It has an amazing jetted tub and newer fixtures, but the tile was awful. It didn't match with anything. It had weird browns and red colors while the countertops are a newer black stone. I have no clue what they were thinking.
So we decided to try painting the ugly tiles to be white to match better with the rest of the trim in the bathroom.
What you'll need:
a professional paintbrush
Zinsser primer (we used this one for tile)
This DIY was super easy especially since we wanted our tiles to be white, we only used the primer.
Take your time and paint on a nice thin coat of the primer. Let it dry. Then repeat with another coat of primer.
It took 3 coats of primer and it was completely covered! I couldn't believe it since those tiles were so dark. If you plan to paint your ceramice tile a different color, I would do 2 coats of the primer and then paint on your color of choice.
It made such a huge difference to the overall look of the bathroom, I can't believe it! And the paint went on so nicely that you can not even tell that the tiles were painted with a paint brush. I am so glad we went for it.
