In this video I show you how to spray paint your radiator using Radiator Enamel Spray Paint, a quick drying ultra tough, heat resistant finish, washable and moisture resistant ( stops rust ) I also show you how to spray the tails of your radiator using a metallic chrome spray.
Preparation:
Prep up the back of the radiator using some cover, I used some old wrapping paper.
Hover any dust cobwebs dirt from the top of your radiator and the sides of your radiator,
clean down radiator with sugar soap spray using a micro fiber cloth, completely dry the radiator off before you rub down.. Using a 400 grit sandpaper rub down your radiator.
Make sure the radiator is clean and dust free- you're now ready to spray your radiator..
When spaying your radiator hold the spray can about 30cm away from the surface this will get the best results and you won't have any runs.. also when spaying try and get it to over lap and always remember to shake the spray can throughout the procedure for best results.
When spaying always make sure you have really good ventilation for the spray fumes to escape eg open windows doors plus always ware a dust mask gloves and eye protection think safety at all times.

Great videos and very helpful. Do you have any tips for spray painting a double vertical wall mounted radiator but more in context getting deep in-between both sides? Essentially the distance of the spray will only go so far.

Did you find that the spray went everywhere? I’m thinking of doing some copper pipes of our boiler but not sure how much masking and covering to go for the rest of the room to stop it going over everything

@creativecrambo 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for stopping by the vid Steven cheers mate 👍 the over spray wasn't to bad to be honest I just had good ventilation ie. Opened windows yeah you will have to cover areas you don't want the over spray to touch, but 2foot cover around the area your spraying should be ok, have some dust sheets on the floor to then just go for it ,hope this helps mate .

I noticed you have sprayed inside the radiator as well...I did exactly the same with a rapid dry enamel and they look fantastic however even after a couple of weeks, there are some serious emissions still coming from the heater when turned on...have you had this problem before?

@creativecrambo 9 ай бұрын

How's it going mate 👍 thanks for stopping by the vid nice one 👍 You normally get smell from the spray for a day or so but that soon goes, must admit I haven't had any long lasting odour Thanks for your feedback anyway and hope you get to the bottom of it 👍👊

Hi I’m just looking to do this myself when you pray the radiator this much is there any drip marks?

@creativecrambo 9 ай бұрын

Hi 👊👍 If your over spraying then you'll get the drips it's best to spray from about 6" to 9" inches while passing across the radiator Pass over once then shake the can and go again using this method reduces any drips . Thanks for your comment and hope it goes OK 👍👍👊

Hi buddy, has your radiator kept its colour now its a year on or did the rust-oleum spray tarnish with the heat of the central heating.? Thanks in advance.

Sprayed my radiator today, gave it a good sanding with sponge sandpaper masked off, used full can on a 1200mm radiator which had discoloured looks fantastic. As close to new as far as I can see.

Hi great vid I’m thinking of doing my rads black from white do I need to prime 1st ? And what sort of spray do you recommend I’m looking for a Matt look?

@creativecrambo 7 ай бұрын

Hi and thanks appreciate that alot 👊 Yeah RUST - OLEUM do a one called STOVE & BBQ PAINT It's heat resistant up to 650^C plus stops any rust Don't think you need a primer just give the radiator a light sand down with fine sandpaper It comes in the colour black matt finish Definitely worth checking that one out hope it turns out really good and thanks for your feedback nice one 👍 👌👊

@creativecrambo 2 жыл бұрын

Minimish thanks for watching 👍👍 I only used 1 can of spray for the radiator and a small can of chrome spray for the radiator tails , if you have a bigger radiator then the one in my vid you might need 2 but for the one I did only 1 can was plenty, appreciate your time stopping by the vid 👌👍👍

Is it possible to paint the valves as well or will this cause issues?

@creativecrambo 2 жыл бұрын

S A ,thanks for stopping by the vid👍👍 ideally I wouldn't paint the valves you need the valve to regulate the temperature painting the valve might restrict it's full purpose of its use, I'd give it a nice clean off or buy some new ones painting the valve might stop it turning, hope this was a help 👍👍.

Plus, not everyone can fit a new radiator, so would have to pay for a plumber to install it.
