This is an excellent tutorial. Thank you Grace! I am an experienced DIY painter. I did this on my expensive 2 x 4 noce polished travertine subway backsplash with all the prep shown above to the letter co-incidentally. I had to redo my professional painter's job during a remodel because I was able to scratch it off with my nail. I rolled the whole thing over again with Ben Moore FRESH START primer 2 coats. I then used Ben Moore Advance in a high gloss for the finish coats. I painted each tile a soft grey, with 1.5 " angled brush leaving the grout line alone. I did go over some of them in a slightly different shade by adding some cream color paint to the grey to slightly vary the color, to give it a handmade tile look. Yes it took time, but you cannot tell at all that I painted it. It saved me thousands of dollars and looks like high end handmade tiles. I just wipe it off gently with soapy water when I need to. It's been 2 years and no issues whatsoever. Well done again Grace in my space:)

Nice job. I have that almost exact same tile, but with more shades and wanted to paint mine to update/modernize it. It is too busy and dark for my liking, especially since I have counter tops with a stone-like pattern. I'm also painting my cabinets and replacing the doors (all 70s vintage golden oak). I never thought to use regular door/trim paint and may even make it match the accent wall color, giving a seamless look yet preserving the tile's texture behind the counters. Good tips here.

That looks awesome. I want to go from a lighter color to something dark so I assume we have to regrout after the painting.

@GraceInMySpace 10 ай бұрын

Regrouting only works if you chip out all the existing grout. Otherwise there isn’t any depth for it to sit in. If you want to avoid that, you can try a paint pen for a new grout color!

thanks for sharing, this video give me more direction to start painting my tiles, i need to bright up the kitchen, please, what color do you recommend for sage green walls, brown cabinet, window frames are white. Thanks again , I didn't know about liquid sandpaper

@GraceInMySpace 8 ай бұрын

You could do the same white as your window trim to keep it cohesive.

@damedesmontagnes 8 ай бұрын

You could sea sponge paint it different layers of colors too. That would look nice.

If you use high quality cabinet paint then no need to seal! I like Benjamin Moore advance. Good luck! You’ve got this.

Good video, but you did not say what type of Kilz primer you used, was it the Oil based primer ( original) or a water based primer ? That's very important, and I think the oil based primer is a lot better, although messy to work with, and clean up after. Could you post a reply on this ? Oil based or Water based primer ? thanks

@GraceInMySpace 2 ай бұрын

I use water based because it is easier to work with. However, oil based is a better quality. Especially if you have prominent wood knots to cover. Oil based is being banned in some states so it may not be found for long!

I’ve always had a gas stove and never had a problem! It really isn’t any different than if you had painted drywall behind the stove, but I just always use a hood vent fan to pull heat upward.

Didn't you have to seal the tiles after painting?

@GraceInMySpace 6 ай бұрын

If you use a good paint you don’t need to. Sealers will likely yellow the color if you do a lighter color so I just like to use a semi gloss finish.

I love the before tiles way more as well. But I fully respect her video, it showed real expertise, she was very knowledgeable on the subject and her work looked good vs amateur. I suppose if I was going to all that trouble though, I'd paint all the tiles insane voodoo neon bright or dia de los meurtos. Im not a fan of the modern make everything look like a hospital neutral that seems to be so prevailing. However! If I was doing it for someone else's house, I will choose the cream/white etc like the video 😅
