You should gone over the tiles with sandpaper after cleaning. It helps remove any protective coating on the tiles and creates many small groves, helping the paint stick. Also would have been wise to do 2 or 3 coats, then, depending on the top coat, apply 2 coats of that. Floors obviously get worn out quickly...
Video is well put together. A few tips. Sand the floor....220 grit....take the haze off the tile. Is there a reason why you allowed the cuts to dry? Because you typically want to roll into the cut while it's still wet. Also, a small roller would have gotten a lot closer to the wall to take care of any brush marks. Otherwise....full credit for taking it on and gettng it done . How does it look almost a year later?
@@commonmancrypto1648WHO repaints every 2 years????? Oh noooo no...I painted my kitchen tiles 9 yrs ago and to this day they don't have as much as a scuff. It's all about the prep work. In my experience anyway.
@@jamiegarner4888I would be interested to know what type of products you use. Getting painted properly stick to tile can be pretty challenging. I guess it also depends on the specific type of tile and the amount of traffic it's going to see. But either way, I'm glad it worked for you.
The new color looks great! and the old color looks outdated; the only thing I would do in my own floor is using a semigloss finish instead of a matte finish; but in any case it looks great!
I have similar tiles in a small kitchen ..I have removed most of the grout with a multi tool, as I intend to paint the tiles then grout to break it up a little.... Like the sheen on the finished surface..
I’m kinda sad because I think the floors before were so pretty it was like farmhouse boho and southwestern design style. A nice cream colored couch Some black accents and light woods with brass sprinkled in would look so nice. I guess with the gray color to mass it up I would sponge on some other shades of gray to make a faux concrete finish
I am trying to find a way to add a bit of visual texture ... dry brushing? swirl ? My kitchen/dining area is huge and I dont want a plain light surface that will show every crumb and spot!

After painting the top coat, do you think it will be okay if I step on it before 12 hours? I’m going to paint my kitchen and it’s the only kitchen in the house.
The top coat really needs a lot longer to totally cure, like days. With that being said if you have to use your kitchen, go for it. We had some light foot traffic on ours after about a full 24 hours and it did cause some minor issues. If you did more than 1 coat of paint you are probably good.
awesome question have you had to retouch it since and if so how much longer after you painted? you mentioned you painted the bathroom floor tile that is what i’m planning on doing too and assuming that floor gets more foot traffic than an outdoor area for example just curious how long till you have to retouch areas
We have had very minimal scratching because we are using the room as a workshop and has gotten a LOT of heavy use but if you are planning on applying it in a bathroom it should hold up much better!
I added a runner rug on my bath floor that covers in front of the sink and toilet over to the tub, with really only about 3" border all around even showing, plus around the toilet. For a higher wear area, I'd double the top coat and maybe refresh that once a year.
It really just depends on how much wear and tear it gets, i expect it to last for around 3-4 years in a heavier use area. So far it has held up well and it is almost a year.
Those beautiful terracotta tiles were much more appealing, but I guess the example of painting the floor was achieved, but i loved the terracotta tiles.
Over the past 6 months it has held up very well, I have been using the space as a workshop and it has gotten heavier traffic than if you were to use this paint in a room. I am very happy with the results so far, thank you!
I would not, especially if it's a bigger space I think that it would be unnecessary time spent. We went by the manufacturer's recommendation which was to clean the floors with soap/de-greaser and water and let dry completely before applying the first coat.
@@AngelaMarieMade I did gianigranite countertops kits over a year now. And still amazing! Do it ! I did my entire bathroom counter top b kitchen . Looks a thousand time better
I asked rustoleum for texturing ideas but they only offered stenciling or blocks of different colors etc. I'm going to experiment with dry brushing or swirling some extra colors...anything to break up the acre of plain surface.
Love 💕 it came out good that’s something I wanted to do to the 2nd bedroom since we don’t have the money to redo that area I also would like do the paint the tile floors of the bathroom
the top coat is amazing...it is designed to give a durable non-slip floor finish. I used semi gloss and it has that sparkling clean look tho matte is becoming more fashionable
I still cleaned my floors as normal without any issues! This paint could be used on black tile, it is very opaque but you might just need a second coat. This floor tile paint should work on the tile walls too.
This is a great video!!!! Approximately how long will the paint last before it begins to wear out? Or would sealing it every few years (how many) keep it from wearing through?
Thank you! I'm not totally sure of an exact time frame but I think it depends on how much traffic the floor gets. If it's a room that gets used a lot it may chip sooner and need touch ups. Also, if you do more coats of the top coat (2 or 3 coats instead of 1 ), it will be more durable. I'm not sure about sealing it again every few years, but the directions do say that another base coat layer followed by the top coat can be applied over the original top coat. Here is an FAQ from the product page that may be helpful: www.rustoleum.com/en/pages/homeowner/faqs/rustoleum-home-faqs?page=4
Oh no!! 😥I didn't notice a smell worse than any other paint I have used, we did have a lot of windows in our space and were able to get more ventilation so that may be a factor.
Well that depends, if you have decent paint skills like my husband it saves the time of putting tape down for basically the same cut line you would do with or without. If you know that you will get paint on the molding then putting tape down would save time having to clean up. Thanks for the input!
Honestly, it has held up really well and better than I had expected. We use the room as a workshop and it gets a lot of wear and tear. I would say there have been very minor areas that scratching has caused the prior paint to come through but it isn't even noticeable just looking in the room. I really liked using this product as an extremely affordable alternative to replacing or tiling over the previous tile. Great question, thanks!
I think most people do it so the paint sticks better and doesn't scuff as easily. Also better if you want less slip on your tile, like if you have pets
Try to convince your landlord that it would be an upgrade to their place (I'm assuming the tiles you want to paint don't look that great) Have them buy the materials in exchange for your free labor, it's a win-win situation.
I now have a one year review video - does painting tile floors last? Check it out here! ua-cam.com/video/OYYMHW6YQSw/v-deo.html

How do you keep it clean? Can you mop the painted floor with any cleaning products including bleach?
You can use a general purpose cleaner like Krud Kutter or soap & water but not abrasive cleaners like bleach
@@AngelaMarieMade thank you! Is it easier to clean when tiles are painted?

I want to know what you did in step 5. What is the product of the top coating?
It is a Rustoleum product and I have a link for it in the description box
How long did it take the first coat to dry?
That’s so inspiring. I’ve got exactly the same tiles in the kitchen. Angela, how much did the material cost you per the demonstrated footage? Thanks
Thank you!!! The total in materials was about $150, and I still have about a half gallon left of paint.

So happy you found it helpful!
That floor before paint waa so much more beautiful

What kind of paint used by you??
Thanks for sharing!! May I ask how you cleaned your brushes and rollers? I painted my table and love the finish but man the clean up was tough!
I just scrape off as much paint as I can and then wash with mild dish soap and water!
Hello its it durable? We always wash our floor tiles with water, is it ok?
Check out my 1 year review on these floors here: ua-cam.com/video/OYYMHW6YQSw/v-deo.html and it is safe to wash with water!
Is a GREAT IDEA thanks my dear
thank you 😀
thanks for sharing this,question how long is last after painting,do i have to repaint after a while or its only one time painting?
It really just depends on how much wear and tear it gets, i expect it to last for around 3-4 years in a heavier use area. So far it has held up well and it is almost a year.
Thanks for sharing I learned a lot. I want to do this project.💚🥰

would it ruin the floor paint if we clean the floorafterwards?
As long as you clean it after it is cured it is fine

WHAT PSINT ARE YOU USING HERE AND WHERE DID YOU BUY IT
Home Depot! It is the Rustoleum floor tile paint.
What about the walls how can i change the colour of the Ceramics, if it's black, bothers me.
Will the paint not chip off in some time especially if it's a wet area?
With any paint, chipping can occur over time especially with heavy use. But, the top coat helps to prevent that as well as any water.
Hi thank you for the video. I was wondering how long this paint will stays under direct sun light?
Thank you!! I can't give you an exact answer, but it should be durable in the direct sunlight.
Those beautiful terracotta tiles were much more appealing, but I guess the example of painting the floor was achieved, but i loved the terracotta tiles.

You can use the same paint that I used in the video, I have a link to it in the description box!

Would you recommend sending the tile before painting it? Some video say to sand it, others just paint it without sending it. Please advise.
I would not, especially if it's a bigger space I think that it would be unnecessary time spent. We went by the manufacturer's recommendation which was to clean the floors with soap/de-greaser and water and let dry completely before applying the first coat.
They do make all sorts of scubbers on a stick. No need for knee pads. I use my electric floor scrubber, and Libman mops.

thoughts on painting 1 inch tiles ??
go for it, I don't think it would take away from the new paint color and would look nice.
Can we use this tiles for toilet?
I don't think it would work well on a toilet because of how glossy the porcelain finish is.

A little sanding to the tiles not necessary?
That's correct, we just needed to scrub it with a cleaning product and wipe it dry
I think most people do it so the paint sticks better and doesn't scuff as easily. Also better if you want less slip on your tile, like if you have pets
@@Jayariee The product says no primer or sanding so it may be formulated in a way that it works better without this step.

Hello, can the paint be removed because I am renting
I don't think so, it would be really difficult!
Try to convince your landlord that it would be an upgrade to their place (I'm assuming the tiles you want to paint don't look that great) Have them buy the materials in exchange for your free labor, it's a win-win situation.
use peel and stick tiles, or even contact paper/vinyl wallpaper for renter friendly options. lots of YT for removable renter upgrades.
