    If you put the chairs back to back when painting the mesh the over spray from the front chair would get on the back chair saving some of the paint.

    Hello! You did a great job! Bless you for having to press that little top on the can for so long. My finger would hurt. Suggestion: Walmart sells a sprayer and so do some of the big box stores, that you can put on top of the cans that still use that top. It’s about 5-7 dollars I believe. It sprays flawlessly. I just thought I would share just in case anyone else didn’t know about this fabulous finger saver. Again, great job!

      You’re welcome, enjoy! I would recommend a marine grade topcoat over the stone spraypaint if you opt for that (or paint it on the underside) as it was less durable the way I did it!

  • @ctwmnpark5664
    @ctwmnpark5664 3 роки тому +2

    Nice job! You mentioned the table didn't hold up. Probably because glass requires special paint due to the smooth surface. Like hand painted wine glasses - they need TLC. And paint wont like rain puddles pooling on top. either. Dont think you can scuff up tempered glass either or you risk it shattering. When our glass broke (sudden storm) my husband made a plywood top with routered edges and I handpainted faux Positano ceramic design right design on it. Marine urethane on top. Matching umbrella. Held up well.

    Did you use a primer on the chairs or would you suggest it? Maybe it was in the black spray paint? I have green and white striped chairs I got from my parents and I want to do this soooo bad to them but I want it to stick and work! Thank you so much for this video 😍

    • @MelDidItHerself
      @MelDidItHerself  4 роки тому +3

      Kirby Felder thank you! So there has since been some chipping (namely when there’s water sitting on the surface & I have touched it). My recommendation would be to spray the glass entirely with the primer first then spraypaint, and perhaps use a roll on poly/top coat (oil based) to seal instead of a spray version and i think it would be far more durable :) enjoy!

  • @kiashaw

    This turned out really nice, I'm thinking of spraying my chairs, have the chairs held up, are they chipping or do they look the same as when you paint it.

    • @MelDidItHerself
      @MelDidItHerself  3 роки тому +4

      That’s awesome, I definitely recommend it! The chairs have held up really great (the table didn’t long term on the glass portion, but adhered well to the metal parts!). Just make sure that you choose a spraypaint that will be able to withstand the elements, but I kept my patio chairs out through a Canadian winter outside and they were completely submerged in snow and they are not affected :)

    You might want to put a polycrylic onto to keep it from chipping and to seal it.

    • @MelDidItHerself
      @MelDidItHerself  3 роки тому +2

      Absolutely! I did use the clear Chalked top coat but if I were to do it again, I think I would have done a primer underneath the stone textured to really help it adhere to the glass

    How are the chairs holding up now a year later? I have the same type of chairs with the plastic mesh for the seat and backrest, and I want to paint the mesh but my husband is worried it will flake and rub off over time.

    • @MelDidItHerself
      @MelDidItHerself  3 роки тому

      The chairs have held up perfectly! The only thing I have noticed is there is one spot that was already peeling paint underneath and I didn’t sand it down before spray painting so in that spot it did pull on my clothes and peeled a bit but otherwise I don’t notice any issues. I have hosed them down with a good amount of pressure to remove bird 💩 too and no issues ☺️ I think the primer really helped with the adhesion!

    Hi! Have the chairs held up? Thinking of doing the same. I didn’t think of spraying the mesh though. Did that chip at all?

    • @MelDidItHerself
      @MelDidItHerself  Рік тому

      Surprisingly the mesh did not! Someone had a great idea to put cardboard or something behind it when spraying to catch the overspray which is a great idea - there was some minor chipping on the frame of the chairs but only where the finish beneath had already been chippy & after it got worn for awhile 😬 so overall not a bad project to revamp them!

    does the stone texture hurt if you accidently rub your elbows on the table ? while eating?

    • @MelDidItHerself
      @MelDidItHerself  3 роки тому

      Nope not at all! You can feel that it’s a little textured but not scratchy or anything like that (especially with a good thick top coat, it smoothes it out even more!)

      @MelDidItHerself  3 роки тому

      Hi Charming, after some prolonged use unfortunately I found mine to be the same 😞 Knowing what I know now, I would recommend trying to use an oil-based polyurethane topcoat (multiple coats) over the stone spray paint to give it a more long lasting, durable finish that can better withstand the elements!

      I would tape the edges with Frog Tape, and then place something opaque like cardboard or craft paper or something over the mesh and then tape it down so it’s properly covered (on both sides to block the overspray from getting in there as well!)
