Looks great! I’m actually about to paint our bathroom vanity creamy mushroom! I painted the bead board in our kitchen with that color and now I’m just going to use the leftover 👌🏼

Nice job! I liked the old hardware better, but perhaps you will use it on a different project.

@thesimplehomeplace 9 ай бұрын

Thank you so much! Yes, I liked it too, but was going for a different look. I definitely kept it though to use for a future project :)

It’s beautiful! Did you paint it inside your home or outside in the garage, etc? I was wondering if debris (pollen, etc) ends up in it outside? Thanks!

@thesimplehomeplace 9 ай бұрын

Thank you! I painted it outside and the only thing I had issues with were bugs getting caught in the paint here and there. I would recommend if you're worried about pollen or anything else, 100% do the primer outside. As for the paint, I've used low fume paints inside and it's not been an issue as long as you can air it out a bit. Hope that helps!

Hello. Nice tutorial. What substance did you apply before you sandpapered and then painted? And what paint did you use? I'd be glad if you answered. Thanks in advance 🌹. 30.01.2024, 07:59 a.m

Hi, thank you! I used wood filler to fill in holes, sanded, primed, then painted with Behr satin enamel indoor paint in the color Creamy Mushroom. Here's the full length video if you want to check it out: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lbhxndlyy52lfWg.html

What js the primer you used ? Is this a water based primer or oil based one

@thesimplehomeplace 3 ай бұрын

It's actually a shellac based primer. It's called Zinsser B-I-N primer and you should be able to find it at most hardware stores. I got it at Home Depot!

Does the paint marks go away after you do one with the second coat ?

@thesimplehomeplace 9 ай бұрын

Yes. The primer is super streaky, but once you paint over it and allow the paint to dry there aren't any paint strokes left over.

@castellarcindy 5 ай бұрын

What’s the name of the primer again? I have a big project with laminate furniture and I am trying to get all the tips I can. Thanks in advance

@thesimplehomeplace 5 ай бұрын

It's the Zinsser BIN Primer in the red can. Good luck with your project!

Wouldn’t Painting it with a Roller Give You Smoother Surfaces Though?

@thesimplehomeplace 8 ай бұрын

In theory, probably, but I don't think it matters. I didn't have any issue with the surface being smooth, especially after painting over everything.

I guess this also works for laminate kitchen cabinets??

@thesimplehomeplace 4 ай бұрын

It definitely should, although I've never tried it. You may want to look into what paint works best for cabinets, but I'd assume the process would be the same!

Do you use a top coat ?

@thesimplehomeplace 4 ай бұрын

I didn't on this piece and it's held up really well since I used a better quality paint, but if you're worried about it, I'd say definitely go ahead and do it.

Hello, do you need to prime? Or can you just buy paint with primer in it? Also can you use any paint on wood? Thank you

@thesimplehomeplace Ай бұрын

Hi! When it comes to painting laminate, you have to prime it with a primer that will grip to the surface. The shellac primer I used works great. If you don't prime first, the paint will peel off, regardless if it has a primer in it or not, because it needs something rough to stick to. The paint I used was a two in one, which helped cut down on the amount of coats I needed over top of the base primer. When it comes to what paint to use on wood, you can use many types of paint. It really depends on if it's real wood or not, if it's raw wood, et cetera. I hope that helps, but let me know if you have other questions!

Did you sand the entire top? If not, how well did the paint do in adherence? Are you using Zinzer?

@thesimplehomeplace 7 ай бұрын

I only scuff sanded minimally and hardly any on top. And yes, I used Zinsser and the paint adhered really well to it. Using that primer is an absolute must when you're painting laminate in my opinion. Here's the link to the full video if you want to check it out :) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lbhxndlyy52lfWg.html
