I used proper tile paint spray stuff for the tiles... It looks good along the side of the bath but totally crap above the sink!
Anyway... i've been working at it today and run out of paint, it needed loads of coats of paint so i'll have to go get some more tomorrow for what will be hopefully the last coat!
Also done all the glossing, including the door frame and the whole of the inside of the door, couldn't believe how yellow it was til i put the white over it!!
This is what it looks like so far..... remember- not finished Bear in mind, the pictures in my earlier post i took this morning, and these just now... 3 coats of paint later, lots of glossing, hole-filling, sanding and tile painting later...  |
no offence meant but for future reference 3 coats of paint in an afternoon is not a good idea. You will find where the coats have dried at different times ie top coat before bottom coat you will possibly get a peel very soon indeed. It would have told you on the tin how long to have left it.I see you have took no notice of my gloss first advice so when you do try to cut the gloss in and go onto the emulsion you will find it near impossible to clean up after use a fitch if you have one if not a small artist brush will give you a chance. Still like you said its a quick job
Another little tip just above the tiles if you use some decorators caulk with a application gun you will get a tidy edge
