We're back with more bathroom DIY projects! Woo Hoo! Raise your hand if you're excited!!! (me, me, me!!!....I'm still excited and in love with my new bathroom. you can't tell, right?)
How about a little faucet face lift to brighten up your day???
Take a look at this BEFORE pic...
It's just your basic cheap-o faucet. You know, the kind you buy for like 25 bucks because you spend your house budget elsewhere, and all the cute, pretty, fancy ones stare at you as you grab the plain, tacky, shiny one. Ya, that's the one.
This is what happens to the cheap-o's... (at least in my house)
So, since we were giving our bathroom a major makeover ON A BUDGET, I needed to come up with a cheap way to fix this nastiness.
Enter -----------> Spray Paint
What doesn't spray paint fix anyways!?!?
We lightly sanded the surface of the faucet with our grinder equipped with a wire wheel. Then, gave it a quick coat of primer (all we had was tractor enamel? You work with what you got when you live on a farm.)
Did you check out that hint???
Then, we used our favorite Rust-Oleum Metallic spray paint in Oil Rubbed Bronze and gave it two coats, letting it fully dry in between.
HELLLLOOOO!!! Lookin' better already, right???
So, this transformation was enough for me to jump up and down...twice!
Plus, we already had the spray paint and the primer. That means this face lift was FREE!
How about a before and after...?
This is my first time spray painting a faucet. That means I'm not sure how long this is going to last. For all I know, my rust will sneak back to the surface after awhile. But until then, I'm going to enjoy my FREE faucet face lift for as long as it lasts. I'll take FREE any day!
It's been a little over a month and it's still looks great! I'll keep you posted...
Thanks for stopping by today! See you Friday for Finally Friday! Have a great day!

Wow...huge difference. I'd be interested in how long it holds up. Hopefully a long time. Spray paint to the rescue! :)

I purchased this established to do a touch up paint job on my small vehicle. I had no training with an airbrush and this couldn't happen to be easier. I purchased a genuine fresh paint gun to do the clear coat, as well as the touch up work I desired, it had been awesome! best airbrush gun the component that I colored is nicer compared to remaining car.

Since, it became necessary for me to replace the cracked sink in my kitchen, I thought of changing the faucets as well, so that it helps bringing a feel of newness, and my children too loved the idea.

ReplyDeleteIt looks like this post was a while ago. How does it look now?
ReplyDeleteHey Kristen! It's been almost 2 years and I'm totally pleased with how it currently looks! There are a few places that have rubbed a bit (mostly where the rusty places were on the top), but I could quickly and easily touch it up with another coat of spray paint! I need to do a follow up post on this! :) Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteThis may be a really basic/"duh!" Question, but how do you spray paint the knobs in a way that they don't get "stuck"?
ReplyDeleteI was actually going to ask the same thing Deanna did. How did you keep the nobs working
ReplyDeleteDonna & Deanna - We didn't do anything special, actually! We didn't remove the knobs so technically the spray paint didn't get underneath the turning parts, if that makes sense! We just spray painted it, let it dry, and it worked fine! They didn't get stuck at all!
ReplyDeleteAmazing! 2 years?! Wowzers! Do you think this would work on an actual sink?
ReplyDeleteI did this with a shelving unit, but used spray poly for a topcoat.
ReplyDeleteAnother tip is to use the same spray paint to spray your gold door handles. They look sooo much better!
ReplyDeleteHow do you get if from not going into where water comes out? But getting a good coverage everywhere

ReplyDeleteKatie Miller, roll up piece of tissue & put it just inside the faucet,or small piece of tape. Once it's dry use a tweezer to pull it out,or off. Then you don't have to worry about your drinking water,ect. 😊
