  3. A clean cloth

Step by step

  • Clean the tiles with water and a mild detergent. The paint will not adhere to the tiles as well if they have grease or dirt on the surface.
  • Use One Coat Tile Paint, here we used Serene Green. Apply with a brush or use a mini roller for speed and ease.
  • If you want to create an effect like we have here with multiple colours, then use low-tack masking tape to protect the inside edges of the tiles you are painting differently.
  • Remove the making tape before the paint has dried. After 8 hours, mask the edges of the tiles to be painted with the contrasting colour, again removing the tape after painting. We used One Coat Tile paint in Muted Mocha.
  • The paint will be dry in 8 hours. To finish off the new look, go over grubby grout lines with the Grout Pen. It not only whitens, but also prevents future mould growth!
